Abstract

The topic of this dissertation suggests and assesses the
importance of the Asean-Australian shipping services in helping
shape the regional economic development surrounding the ports
that it serves along its routes. This study makes a special
reference to the development of the new Kuantan Port in its
defined role of acting as a catalyst in speeding up the
economic development of the East Coast states of Peninsular
Malaysia, i.e. Pahang, Trengganu and Kelantan.
This research paper investigates in particular the potential of
this Kuantan Port in linking with the other neighbouring Asean
ports in serving the import and export trade between the Asean
region and Australian including New Zealand. Due to
geographical and logistic reasons, Australia does not have much
choice but to work very closely with her Asean neighbours in
developing their respective economies.
