About Marine Industry Malaysia’s shipping industry is well-rooted in history and is traced to the early days when it facilitated much of the regional and international trade. Since then, the industry has grown and contributed significantly to the development of the nation. The development is coupled with the Malaysia Shipping Master Plan (MSMP) that covers all the various ingredients that make for a successful shipping industry from the actual vessels that carry the trade, the employment and development of Malaysian seafarers and maritime human capital, ship financing, business and regulatory environment, and the provision of ancillary services. Together with Malaysia’s involvement in national, regional, and international maritime initiatives and organizations such as the International Maritime Organization, this MSMP is a major component in keeping Malaysia’s shipping industry at the forefront in contributing to the nation’s interests and promoting our engagement with the international community. The shipping industry must thus continue to operate in a way that is viable and efficient. Star Marine Academy will play the key component role in promoting Malaysia’s seafarers training competitive and dynamic.
