Terengganu backs CCUS industry for local economic gains
KUALA TERENGGANU: The Terengganu government will extend its full cooperation to the federal government in developing the carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) industry in the state, said Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Samsuri. He said that as the hub for this emerging industry, the state government will ensure that it brings tangible benefits, particularly to the people of Terengganu. 'We are still in discussions with Petronas (the operator), and through our GLCs (government-linked companies), the state government is moving towards that (the implementation of the CCUS). 'What we want now is maximum benefit for Terengganu, not just to serve as a host site, but to ensure that the state government and the people of Terengganu gain from it,' he told reporters after the opening ceremony of the East Coast Energy (ECE) 2025 Conference at the Islamic Civilisation Park Convention Centre here today. Earlier, Terengganu Yang Dipertuan Muda, Tengku Muhammad Ismail Sultan Mizan officiated at the opening of the ECE 2025 Conference, which will run for two days. In March, Parliament approved the CCUS Bill 2025, paving the way for increased investment and economic growth.

Hadi Awang recovers swiftly after heart procedure at IJN
KUALA TERENGGANU: The health condition of PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang, who recently underwent a medical procedure at the National Heart Institute (IJN), is showing highly positive signs of recovery. Terengganu Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar said medical specialists treating the Marang MP described his recovery process as unusually swift and exceeding expectations. 'Alhamdulillah, I visited him and was genuinely pleased to see how smoothly the procedure went. His recovery has been remarkably fast. Insya-Allah, he will be able to return to work soon,' he told reporters after officiating the 2025 East Coast Energy (ECE) Conference at the Islamic Civilisation Park Convention Centre here. The Yang Dipertuan Muda of Terengganu, Tengku Muhammad Ismail Sultan Mizan, officiated the two-day ECE 2025 Conference, which began today. When asked why details about Abdul Hadi's treatment and its location were not made public before, Ahmad Samsuri explained that it was a precautionary decision due to the leader's age and condition, which necessitated limiting visitors. 'We must understand that in such circumstances, if we disclose where he is, people will naturally want to visit. If we deny them, feelings may be hurt. But considering Tuan Guru Abdul Hadi's age and health, we have to minimise any risks that could disrupt his treatment,' he added.
