Tourism and O&G advantage for Labuan


Dateline 2015-03-02, Daily Express:

Oil and gas-related industries are proving a boon for Labuan in making it an attractive destination for investors.

With more than 120 local and international O&G players operating on the island, the sector will be developed further, says Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor.

He said to realise the objective – Labuan as an O&G hub –, the Industrial Training Institute (ITI) Labuan campus had introduced a O&G preparatory programme.

The programme, he added, is preparation towards pursuing the newly-introduced Bachelor in Oil and Gas degree program at Universiti Malaysia Sabah Labuan International College (UMSKAL), in collaboration with Petronas.

The first intake of students commenced in February this year.
