KUCHING: Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan led a delegation from the Ministry of International Trade, Industry and Investment (MINTRED) for a meeting with Surbana Jurong Infrastructure Pte Ltd in Singapore on yesterday (June 6).
A press statement from his office said the meeting was to update MINTRED on the progress of a consultancy study undertaken by Surbana Jurong as part of the state’s broader industrial transformation plan.
The key aim of the study is to explore bold and innovative ways to meet the future needs of Sarawak’s economic development, with sustainability as a core area of growth, especially in the development of downstream oil and gas industry.
Surbana Jurong is studying both green and brown field industrial development, in line with PCDS 2030 and Sarawak’s transition to renewable energy alternatives, hydrogen, carbon capture, utilisation and storage as it takes steps towards decarbonisation.
Among the delegates were MINTRED advisor Datuk Mohd Naroden Majais, the ministry’s acting permanent secretary Dzulkornain Masron, and special functions officer Datuk Liaw Soon Eng.
