‘We can no longer compromise on oil’


Dateline 2012-01-21:

The Jeffrey Kitingan-led State Reform Party (Star) chapter in Sabah wants the licensing of the oil and gas industry in Sabah to be left in state hands. Currently licensing is under federal control.

This is among several points listed in the party’s ‘Petroleum Masterplan’ which was unveiled here yesterday.

According to Kitingan the “rights of Sabah and the welfare of the people can no longer be compromised by the continued exploitation of its oil resources at the expense of the people of Sabah.”
