- Manmade waterway that allows boats and ships to pass from one body of water to another
- Used to transport water for irrigation and other human uses
- Example : Canals of Malacca ( Malacca River Cruise )

Benefits:
1. Un-irrigated wastelands can be developed by canal irrigation, which would increase the quantity of biomass in the area.

2. Economic development can be expedited by avoiding dangerous droughts. Dependence on rainfall can be minimized through canal development.

3. Canals are fed by rain water received by rivers, and the water is used for irrigation. Production of crops needing more water is also possible through canals. As compared to un-irrigated soils, higher productivity per hectare is also possible due to canals.

More time-consuming mode and is ideal for those items which have a long lead time.
- Risky
Since there is a high amount of time involvement from shipping to delivery, the risks associated with ocean shipping are higher.
- Lack of infrastructure
Certain parts of the world might not have facilities of ports and terminals and can not receive large ships carrying containers.
- High fuel prices
The price of fuel is a major cost-driver in sea transportation. Fuel costs can account for as much as 60 per cent of a ship’s operating costs.
- Overcapacity
Due to cargo imbalances moving between Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak.]]> 2020-11-06 03:30:51 UTC https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/896637874 BENEFITS amiraaifa6 https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/902857290 - It's safe
The percentages of losses caused by incidents during transport by sea is lowest.
- Low cost
Can ship large volumes at low cost. A freight forwarder can consolidate consignments to reduce costs.
- Helpful in Defense

Development of shipping is essential for the defense of the country also. It is also called second line of defense.
- Less Maintenance Cost

Maintenance cost in rail and road transport is quite high but maintenance cost of water transport is quite less.
- Larger Capacity

It can carry much larger quantities of heavy and bulky goods such as coal, and, timber etc.

With over 40 companies present and among them a broad range of multinationals, the free zone has reached its limits, and Port of Tanjung Pelepas is targeting to double the size by 2025.
- Modernization and Digitalization
Ports are required to implement advanced technologies, digitalize processes and adopt innovative working methods to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
- Development of secondary ports located in Sabah and Sarawak.
Ports in Sabah and Sarawak have considerable potential for growth given the increase in their throughput volumes over the past decade, particularly for container cargo.
- Use of alternative energy sources
For example, fuel cells to power port vehicles, plants, machineries and
other mobile devices.
- Materials
Use more sustainable method of disposing the dredged sediments such as mechanical dewatering instead of lagooning]]> 2020-11-09 06:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/903073859 WATER TRANSPORT mincempaka https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/908058618 2020-11-10 11:45:37 UTC https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/908058618 INFRASTURCTURE mincempaka https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/908068015 2020-11-10 11:50:21 UTC https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/908068015 dyianadiah25 https://padlet.com/amiraaifa6/b9ylu9jbkcfi6ssy/wish/909341826 Ports / Harbors
