Malaysian Bulk Carriers (Maybulk) booked a profit of MYR 98m ($23m) from the disposal of three ships, boosting its nine-month results.
The Robert Kuok-backed shipowner secured total net proceeds of MYR 270m from the sale of the 58,000-dwt bulkers Alam Molek and Alam Madu (both built 2014) and the 33,300-dwt Alam Sejahtera (built 2016).
In early September, TradeWinds reported that Meghna Industries of Bangladesh had emerged as the buyer of the two supramaxes, while the handysize was reported sold to Turkish owner GSD Marin in mid-July.
