Two ZIM-Linked Shipments Stopped Recently at Malaysian Borders

Two recent incidents have seen trailer lorries carrying containers bearing the ZIM logo denied entry into Malaysia at the country's borders with Thailand. The first occurred on June 2, when Perlis Customs stopped a trailer transporting frozen chicken at the Padang Besar ICQS Complex. The second incident took place on June 6, with Kedah Customs preventing a trailer carrying computer parts and components from entering at the Bukit Kayu Hitam ICQS Complex.
Frozen Chicken Shipment Stopped at Padang Besar

On June 2, a trailer truck was intercepted by Perlis Customs at the Padang Besar Integrated Quarantine, Immigration, and Customs Complex (ICQS). This vehicle was found to be transporting a container laden with frozen chicken. The container prominently displayed the ZIM logo, indicating its connection to the Israel-based shipping company.
Computer Parts Shipment Denied Entry at Bukit Kayu Hitam

Subsequently, on June 6, Kedah Customs detected another trailer lorry at the Bukit Kayu Hitam ICQS Complex. This lorry was carrying a container filled with computer parts and components. Like the earlier shipment, the container bore the ZIM logo, prompting authorities to deny its entry into Malaysia.
Both Vehicles Ordered to Turn Back to Thailand

Following their detection and inspection, both trailer lorries were instructed to return to Thailand. The vehicle carrying the frozen chicken was turned back on June 2. The trailer transporting computer parts was confirmed to have left the Malaysian border area and returned to Thailand by 1:30 PM on June 6.
