He added that there may be two or three announcements by Malaysia Petroleum Management (MPM) senior vice president Datuk Ir Bacho Pilong.
“I’m not sure what the announcements will be, but I understand they will be good news for Sabah,” he said.SOGCE 2025 is scheduled to take place from July 3 to 4 at the Sabah International Convention Centre, with the theme “Fostering Collaboration, Paving Sustainable Opportunities.”
The annual event is the only oil, gas, and energy-focused conference and exhibition held in Sabah, bringing together industry leaders, policymakers, and stakeholders.
