Description
We used Coastlink ( General Manager Eddie Thong, +60 16-301 8738) for shipment of our LandCruiser from Kuching to Port Klang. Shipments within Malaysia are terribly inefficient. You need to book the shipment at least 5 days before sailing and the ETD can easily shift by a week. We just missed the closing date of a RoRo and it appeared that the next one would be only 3 weeks later. We therefore decided for a shared container for the same price that eventually went 2 weeks after the RoRo. We have been without the car for 15 days (real sailing time is 2 days). In total it took 4 weeks between our first attempt to place an order for shipment and the car release.
Coastlink works with Golden Sky Logistics in Kuching (Mrs. Alice, +60 16-808 6069). After we had booked the shipment we went to her office to check documents (Carnet). A few days before sailing I brought the car to the port. I drove it into the container myself. Three man of Golden Sky arrived as agreed and secured the car. Alice had to keep my Carnet original.
After processing by customs in Sarawak she sent it by courier to Coastlink for processing by customs in Selangor.
Two days after arrival of the vessel in Port Klang I was contacted by Eddie's staff to agree on time and location of the car collection. When we arrived the car was parked in the street in good order with the Carnet inside.
Communication with all parties mainly went through WhatsApp, including sending of documents. We paid by bank transfer after departure of the vessel. We paid MYR 4730 for the shipment.
All in all the service provided was reliable and parties in general communicated well. Although much of the process is beyond control of Coastlink and Golden Sky I believe that a certain amount of pushing on my side was helpful to somewhat speed up the process.
Location on the map is approximate as I didn't need to go there physically. Address is
1st floor, 20, Jalan Puteri 2/2, Bandar Puteri, 47100 Puchong, Selangor, Malaysia.
