Taking the Helm:

The hot topic in town - the Petros-Petronas discussions - is being tackled by our bigwigs, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and Sarawak Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg. According to Utility and Telecommunications Minister, Datuk Seri Julaihi Narawi, the duo will reach an agreement and sort things out, especially issues regarding the Distribution of Gas Ordinance (DGO) 2016.

"They'll make the decision. They've already met, and I believe they'll release a joint statement. I'm confident about it," Julaihi stated. He was speaking to reporters after the 2025 Miri Madani Service Programme, representing the Premier at the Miri Indoor Stadium.

In response to a leaked letter concerning the DGO 2016, Julaihi remained tight-lipped. However, he emphasized that, under the DGO, Petroleum Sarawak Berhad (Petros) is the officially appointed sole gas aggregator in Sarawak.

"I'd rather not comment further. The Prime Minister and the Premier will handle this," he said. Earlier at the event, Julaihi clarified that the DGO 2016 pertains solely to gas distribution, not oil.

Remember the uproar over a letter going viral? The minister acknowledged the commotion, stating, "The media has turned this into a heated national issue. To be honest, I can't disclose much. The letter was issued by our Ministry with polite language, intending to avoid harsh words."

Julaihi reiterated that the prime minister and premier have already met to seek a consensus on the Petros-Petronas issue, including the matter of gas distribution. He believes that the talks aim to ensure a harmonious collaboration between the two companies, potentially boosting energy supply to ASEAN countries.

Sources suggest that behind the scenes, both leaders, together with the top brass of Petronas and Petros, are engaging in cordial discussions with the intention to resolve disputes concerning the DGO 2016. Stay tuned for updates as the Prime Minister and Sarawak Premier finalize their agreement! 💪🤝🌐
