Through various state, national and international awards, Miri Port Authority enjoys the reputation of being one of the best managed organisations with its high standard, service and delivery reliability, responsiveness and compliance with stringent international standards, he said.

Based on the Japanese ‘Kaizen’ culture, the 5S concept is embedded in work processes supporting its integrated management system such as MS 1S09001:2008 and BS OHSAS 18001:2007 providing direct significant impact to improving quality, productivity, efficiency in cargo delivery, safety, cost savings and storage optimisation.

The outcome of 5S has brought positive impact on both its internal customers and external customers as indicated by significant increase in its customers’ satisfaction index each year.

In addition, with savings from 5S zero wastage and lean thinking culture, Miri Port is extending its 5S practices to impact the environment and the fight against global warming.

It is supporting the National Greening Policy by embarking on greening projects and 4Rs (rebuy, recycle, reuse, and reduce) programmes in collaboration with other key agencies such as Miri City Council and Agriculture Department.
