KUCHING: Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg should be truthful to all Sarawakians and admit that Petronas work contracts awarded after his appointment as the Chief Minister of Sarawak, in as far as they involved the operations in Sarawak, have gone to a handful of Sarawakians and not to Petros, the state-owned company incorporated to partake the upstream and downstream petroleum-related development activities in Sarawak, said Batu Lintang assemblyman See Chee How.
See, who is state PKR vice chairman, was responding to Abang Johari’s denial on Saturday that most Petronas contracts worth RM2.1 billion being awarded to close relatives and Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) members.
According to See, in Nov 2017, it was revealed that Sapura Energy Bhd has bagged five contracts worth a combined RM1.47 billion.
“The contracts included work in relation to the Pan Malaysia Transportation and Installation of Offshore Facilities for Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd and Sarawak Shell Bhd, and a contract to undertake the provision of maintenance, construction and modification services under the Package A (Offshore) — Sarawak Gas for Petronas Carigali,” he said today.
On Jan 15, this year, he said a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for a logistics collaboration between Petronas Chemicals Marketing Labuan (PCML) Ltd and Hubline Berhad was signed, enabling Hubline Berhad to join PCML’s panel of transporters for petrochemical products.
“On Jan 16, 2018, Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (PCSB) had issued a statement announcing that it has awarded contracts for the provision of maintenance, construction and modification services (MCM) at its offshore facilities in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak to five local contractors, namely,
- Carimin Engineering Services Sdn Bhd,
- Dayang Enterprise Sdn Bhd,
- Deleum Primera Sdn Bhd,
- Petra Resources Sdn Bhd,
- Sapura Fabrication Sdn Bhd, and its joint-venture partner, Borneo Seaoffshore Engineering Sdn Bhd.
“Tan Sri Datuk Amar Hamid Bugo, the former State Secretary of Sarawak was appointed the Chairman of Petros by the present Sarawak Chief Minister. He has remained a director in Sapura Energy Berhad, a corporation which is almost wholly West Malaysian.”
See said Abang Johari should have full knowledge that the joint venture partner for Sapura Fabrication Sdn Bhd in the contract to undertake the provision of maintenance, construction and modification services under the Package A (Offshore) — Sarawak Gas for Petronas Carigali, is Borneo Seaoffshore Engineering Sdn Bhd, a company registered in Kota Kinabalu, but one which the Sarawak Chief Minister’s one very close family member was made a director not long before the contract was awarded.
“Dayang Enterprise Sdn Bhd and Petra Resources Sdn Bhd are established corporations of which Sarawakian individuals have substantial interests, though a brother of the present Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak was also made a director in Petra Resources very recently.”
Hence, See said he maintained his statement that the general Sarawakians have not benefited from the contracts that were awarded by Patronas, valued to be above RM2 billion, since the present Chief Minister has taken his office.
“And I urge the Chief Minister to be forthright and truthful in revealing who are the Sarawakians who are behind the companies and corporations who had secured the contracts with Petronas thus far.
“And I maintain my contention that, because of the personal interests and that of the parties within the Barisan Nasional (BN), the Sarawak Chief Minister has put himself in a weak position to safeguard and fight for Sarawak’s rights in the exploration, exploitation and development of our valuable petroleum resources in Sarawak.”
