KUALA LUMPUR: THE Kelantan government’s RM12 billion petroleum royalty demand is not only unreasonable from the legal standpoint but also concerns technicalities related to activities for oil and gas extraction in the area concerned.

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), in a statement issued yesterday, said Kelantan, just as Terengganu and all other states in Peninsular Malaysia, only had rights to demand petroleum royalty if extraction of oil and gas was done not more than three nautical miles from the low tide line or the shore of the state concerned.

      Abu Tariq,
      That was harsh. I am a Kelantanese too but I wouldn’t argue with people in such language if I were to win.
      Be more educated and use a proper language when communicating.
      You do not know what other people know and their knowledge is not limited by what you think they know.
      Whichever side Wata’s in is strictly none of your business.
      This is an informative blog, and what are you, someone who googled things like ‘minyak’, ‘royalty’, ‘kelantan’ and by accident, ended up in this blog?
      Jange wat malu ore kelate, ok boh? (^_^)

    ok. its Jabba’s come back.

    Wata just only post a link. This blog as far as I know is non-partisan, non-abusive to any government, state, or race. Play nice.

    The only one that is an arsehole is me. and I declare the idiot that can’t even write in proper Bahasa to STFO.
