RRI.CO.ID, Jakarta — Indonesian shipping company, PT Pelayaran Nasional Indonesia (PT PELNI), continues to strengthen its ship agency business by expanding its service coverage to Malaysia. This trust marks an important milestone in expanding PELNI’s shipping agency business network while reaffirming the company’s capability to provide professional, reliable, and internationally standardized maritime services.

For this service, PELNI acted as the agent for the KT Bumi Jaya 05/BG Bumi 300 03, which transported approximately 8,370 metric tons (MT) of bulk coal from Palembang to Malaysia. PELNI handled the entire agency process, from coordinating loading operations in Indonesia, providing services upon the vessel’s arrival at Port Klang on July 1, 2026, to handling operations at the Lumut Maritime Terminal. The entire operational sequence was completed on July 15, 2026.

In addition to its core services, he noted that PELNI now also provides ship agency services at the international level. PELNI Corporate Secretary Ditto Pappilanda stated that this success reflects growing trust from service users.

“Agency services are one of the strategic business lines we continue to develop. The trust placed in us to handle ships in Malaysia is proof that PELNI has the human resources and operational capabilities to provide services tailored to the needs of our customers,” Ditto said as quoted by a written press release received on Monday, July 20, 2026.

Throughout the service, PELNI provides comprehensive support, including handling port formalities, coordinating with port authorities, and providing on-site operational support to ensure that loading and unloading processes are safe, smooth, efficient, and in compliance with applicable regulations. According to Ditto, this success serves as a foundation for PELNI to continue expanding its agency service network across Southeast Asia.

“Moving forward, we will continue to strengthen our integrated agency services with the support of competent human resources, an expanding operational network, and service standards that prioritize professionalism and reliability,” he said.
