KOTA KINABALU: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor welcomed Shell Malaysia’s initiatives to increase local participation in Sabah’s oil and gas industry to expand economic opportunities for Sabahans.
He said the State Government last year set a 100 per cent target to increase the value of Oil and Gas Services and Equipment contracts awarded to local companies.
