BARCELONA, Spain (Reuters) -Paris St Germain's Kylian Mbappe scored twice in the second half to help his side to a 4-1 comeback win at 10-man Barcelona in their Champions League quarter-final, second leg to wrap up a 6-4 aggregate victory on Tuesday.

North Butterworth Container Terminal is one of six ports run by Penang Port Sdn Bhd. — Photos: CHAN BOON KAI/The StarPenang Port Sdn Bhd chief executive officer Datuk Sasedharan Vasudevan said RM250mil would be spent over the next three years.“With industrial parks in Padang Terap, Kota Perdana, Sidam and Kulim in Kedah, there is tremendous demand for port facilities in the northern region.

Sasedharan said PPSB was looking at doing 1.55 million TEUs this year compared to 1.44 million TEUs last year, a rise of 11%. “Priority will also be given to IT development, where all port activities are to be seamlessly connected.“The RM1mil facial recognition digital pass is said to be the first of its kind in an Asian port,” he highlighted.NBCT’s expansion has been affected by the 7.2km Penang Undersea Tunnel project.

“The Environmental Impact Assessment report for the NBCT development can only be obtained in 2027.“Since there is no decision from the state on the undersea tunnel or a third bridge, we need to do the planning for the TEU capacity, with and without the projects. Any expansion of NBCT beyond Phase 2 would intrude into the existing proposed location for the ‘Penang 3rd Link’.
