SEC leaves decision on lead role to State Govt
Kota Kinabalu September 15, 2011: Sabah Energy Corporation Sdn Bhd (SEC) is leaving it to the State Government to decide which of its agencies or government-linked companies is to take the lead role in the State's oil and gas industry.
Its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Datuk Harun Haji Ismail said it is the State Government and Chief Minister's prerogative to decide on this, although the corporation is ready if asked to shoulder the responsibility.
"We are always ready actually. SEC, and I believe the other state agencies and GLCs, are ready if entrusted to take the lead or become a focal point in the State's oil and gas business É we have the capabilities, so I think there is no problem,"
he said.
Also, SEC has a very good relationship with Petronas and the other major oil and gas companies, he said during a Hari Raya open house held at his residence in Likas.
He was asked to comment on the Sabah Oil and Gas Contractors Association's (SOGCA) recent call to the government to give SEC the leading role in the State's oil and gas industry development.
SOGCA President Datuk Iskandar Abdul Malik, had said presently everybody in the industry still do not know who is actually leading the industry, as government-linked agencies in State seemed to be competing with each other.
When asked on the problems faced by the State's oil and gas contractors, Harun said presently there are only a limited number of them venturing into oil and gas activities related to processing.
"Many of them (local oil and gas contractors), or over 50 per cent of the total, are involved in oil and gas non-processing activities like in civil works, jetty construction and so on. So SEC hopes the government will give more opportunities to our local contractors to expand their involvement in oil and gas related activities to gain more experience," he said.
Opportunity should be given to the local contractors, he said, adding that it is for this reason that SEC always emphasised that talented local contractors be given more opportunities in the State's oil and gas industry.
"Because oil and gas activity is something that is currently booming in Sabah.
Not only the contractors should be given the opportunity but also local people in Sabah should be trained and work in this field to gain more experiences," he said.
Harun said SEC is currently working with another group to help local youth get proper training at the various training institutions in the State.
"But this is presently still in the planning stage," he said.

Support you!
peluang yang lebih perlu diberikan kepada kontraktor tempatan dan rakyat Sabah untuk terlibat dalam industri tersebut.
BalasPadamLebih peluang perlu untuk penduduk sabah mencaburi dalam minyak dan gas yang terdapat di Sabah. Berikan penduduk lebih pengetahuan mengenai pendidikkan minyak dan gas supaya mereka dapat memahami dan tahu tugas yang perlu.
BalasPadamagak sukar untuk menceburi bidang ini dan mendapatkan kontrak jika tiada pengalaman dan kemahiran berkaitan. jadi, diharap generasi2 muda mengambil peluang untuk melanjutkan pelajaran dan mengambil kemahiran berkaitan bidang ini agar di masa akan datang mereka dapat menguasai keseluruhan sektor ini dan tiada lagi alasan di mana rakyat tempatan tidak berkelayakan.
BalasPadamjika kadar royalti tidak dinaikkan, janganlah pula kontrak pun diberikan pada orang luar juga. biarlah sektor minyak dan gas Sabah, Sabahan yang lebih dapat manfaat dan kelebihan.
BalasPadamsabahans should be given the opportunity to work in oil and gas related activities. Doing that, they could expand their experience.
BalasPadamHow is it possible for sabah to further advance or develop if the projects are given to the wm.
BalasPadam"SEC hopes the government will give more opportunities to our local contractors to expand their involvement in oil and gas related activities to gain more experience"
BalasPadamSyarikat dan kontractor tempatan seharus diberi peluang untuk mengendali projek kerajaan untuk membuktikan bahawa mereka juga berpotensi mengendali projek besar.
Semoga peluang diberi untuk membuktikan kebolehan syarikat tempatan untuk menjalankan projek sektor minyak dan gas.
BalasPadam"SEC always emphasised that talented local contractors be given more opportunities in the State's oil and gas industry. Because oil and gas activity is something that is currently booming in Sabah."
BalasPadamIndustri minyak dan gas merupakan sektor yang paling besar di Sabah, seharus memberi peluang kepada orang Sabahan menceburi sektor ini untuk mengambil pengalaman.
SEC is currently working with another group to help local youth get proper training at the various training institutions in the State.
BalasPadamHoping SEC continue his hard work to train more hand-on teenager to involve themself in different sector like oil & gas, tourism, wood etc.
Sabah memang sangat memerlukan syarikat dan institut untuk memberi training dan peluang supaya generasi muda dapat menceburi bidang yang berpotensi tinggi.
BalasPadamSyarikat local seharus juga mencuba bersaing untuk mendapatkan projek, pengalaman seharus dikumpul sedikit demi sedikit. Kalau terlalu bergantung kepada kerajaan, susah juga keadaannya.
BalasPadamHarap kerajaan menjalankan lebih banyak institut dan latihan supaya generasi muda dapat menceburi dalam bidang yang berlainan.
BalasPadam"Many of them (local oil and gas contractors), or over 50 per cent of the total, are involved in oil and gas non-processing activities like in civil works, jetty construction and so on."
BalasPadamHarap kerajaan memberi lebih banyak peluang untuk kontracktor tempatan menceburi dalam sektor minyak dan gas yang berpotensi tinggi di Sabah.
Hoping that SEC successfully to help local youth to get proper training so that there can be more competitive to various sectors and industries.
BalasPadamMemang banyak syarikat dan kontraktor di Sabah mempunyai potensi dan latar belakang yang baik untuk handle projek termasuk minyak dan gas. Seharus diberi peluang untuk membuktikan kebolehan masing-masing.
BalasPadamjika terdapat kontraktor tempatan yang layak diberikan peluang dalam industri ini atau belia2 sabahan yang mempunyai latarbelakang dalam industri ini, mereka memang patut diberikan keutamaan lebih2 lagi industri ini berkembang di negeri ini..
