PORT DICKSON: The construction of a new jetty to replace the ageing Pengkalan Kempas jetty is set to commence this December, and is anticipated to draw more tourists to the area, which is famed for its udang galah (giant freshwater prawns) and serves as a popular hub for anglers.

Datuk Mohd Faizal Ramli, the chairman of the Negri Sembilan Heritage, Technology, Innovation, and Digital Committee, announced that the project has received a federal allocation of RM500,000, granted to the Port Dickson District and Land Office.
