Kale Logistics MMSW Boosts Efficiency in Malaysia

Kale Logistics Solution’s (Kale) Malaysia Maritime Single Window (MMSW) has been officially launched by the Honourable Minister of Transport Malaysia, Anthony Loke Siew Fook on 17 Feb 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The implementation of Kale’s MMSW has meant an immediate reduction of vessel processing from up to five days, down to within hours, due to the real-time data and transparency of service level agreements (SLA’s) it manages.

“The Ship Clearance System has been a game-changer for us. Transitioning from a manual, time-consuming process to a seamless digital platform has significantly improved efficiency and reduced clearance times – we are proud to be among the first to implement it successfully,” said Captain Subramaniam, General Manager, Port Klang.

The MMSW digitally enhanced operations at Malaysia’s largest port situated on the world’s second busiest shipping lane, the Malacca Strait, to which 11,000 vessels call each year.

In the next phases of the MMSW project, more ports will join the system, and its capabilities will continue to expand.

“I am proud to see how the Kale system has helped Malaysian trade, as Malaysian ports reported over 30 million TEUs last year, a 10 percent increase on 2023,” said Vineet Malhotra, Co-Founder and Director, Kale Logistics Solutions.

“The improvement already seen in Port Klang’s operation speaks volumes to the capabilities of this level of collaboration, especially as Port Klang targets 15 million TEUs in 2025.”

After implementing the system at Port Klang, Kale Logistics expanded it to other federal ports in Malaysia, creating a digital framework that vastly improves port cargo operations.

The MMSW is part of Kale’s Codex – Port Community System, designed to promote paperless trade through the digitalisation of port systems to increase their efficiency, improve sustainability, and improve stakeholder communication.
