Abstract: Malaysia is fast developing in terms of the development of infrastructure, including the development of modern ports which facilitate efficient container handling. Malaysia has also invested a large amount of money to enhance its shipping fleet. All this forms part of the aspiration of Malaysia to become a maritime nation in the true sense. Nevertheless, part and parcel of a true maritime nation is the regulation of shipping matters to support the shipping industry. This paper examines the available substantive maritime laws in Malaysia and their suitability in the light of the existing modern character of shipping and international trade.
