OGFJ – Malaysia goes deeper and further afield


Here’s an article from the Oil & Gas Financial Journal. I was one of the hundreds interviewed, but I guess I’m Too Sexy for this Sheet:

When Malaysia´s Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak unveiled its highly anticipated New Economic Model (NEM) in March 2010, he re-emphasized the importance of the oil & gas industry for Malaysia. “In oil and gas, we have one of our nation’s most visible and valued champions in PETRONAS. It has built a strong brand internationally, and I believe now we must also help drive growth here in Malaysia with even greater support for local suppliers as it grows. Beyond the core oil and gas sector, however, Malaysia’s international energy expertise can help companies in this industry and beyond expand internationally by sharing its know-how, partnering on international bids and offering support on a truly global scale. The strength of having a well-developed pool of local talent and companies which are able to compete globally gives us a lead advantage.”
