About Tanjung Pelepas
Tanjung Pelepas sits at the southern tip of peninsular Malaysia close to the Singapore strait and functions largely as a transshipment hub competing with Singapore itself. Relatively little of its throughput is Malaysian import cargo. It serves the Johor and Iskandar development region for what does stay in the country.
