Malaysia’s InvestKL Woos Top Oil, Gas MNCs to Base in Kuala Lumpur


Why isn’t InvestMalaysia wooing me to be an overachiever?

Dateline 2016-10-06, Rigzone:

Malaysia’s InvestKL is more than half way to completing its mission: attracting 100 multinational corporations (MNC), including top oil and gas firms, to base their regional headquarters in Greater Kuala Lumpur (KL) by 2020.

Luring oil and gas MNCs ranked among the Fortune 500 or Forbes 2000 group of firms looms large for InvestKL given Malaysia’s well established petroleum industry, anchored by national oil company (NOC) Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS).

“It’s is not the main focus, but it’s certainly a key sector because oil and gas is one of the 12 national key economic areas. KL is also an oil and gas hub for Southeast Asia,” Daniel Teng, senior director of Marketing & Communications, Strategy, Advisory and Services at InvestKL told Rigzone.
