The 13th World Urban Forum (WUF13), hosted by the UN-Habitat Programme in Baku, Azerbaijan, delivered a crucial message: modern development must be firmly rooted in citizen well-being, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. These global aspirations are highly relevant as Malaysia charts its strategic course for the Carey Island Port Third Terminal in Selangor.

This significant mega-project holds the potential to establish a new benchmark for balanced development across economic, social, and environmental spheres. It aims to integrate advanced infrastructure with a commitment to the welfare of the people and the preservation of the natural surroundings.

The development of the Carey Island Port Third Terminal is envisioned not just as an economic engine but as a model for inclusive and sustainable urban growth. Its planning reflects a forward-thinking approach that considers the long-term prosperity and quality of life for the region's inhabitants, alongside ecological responsibility.
