KUCHING (May 4): Further discussions will be held to finalise matters involving Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) and Petroliam Sarawak Berhad (Petros) based on previously agreed-upon principles, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
In a statement posted on his official Facebook page, Anwar said the discussions will take place as soon as Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg returns from an official visit to London, United Kingdom.
Anwar confirmed that he had spoken to Abang Johari on Saturday regarding the Petronas-Petros matter.
'In the meantime, on the basis of mutual interest, all parties should postpone any action or issue any statements.
'I have high confidence that this issue can be resolved amicably by standing firm on the path of respectful and meaningful discourse, God willing,' said Anwar.
Earlier, Abang Johari said he had received a phone call from Anwar to find an equitable and amicable resolution to the ongoing dispute involving Petronas and Sarawak.
It was reported on May 2 that Sarawak had issued a legal notice to Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd, as the company is allegedly operating without a permit at its Miri Crude Oil Terminal. abang johari anwar ibrahim discussions lead Petronas Petros
