Kuala Lumpur: The government on Wednesday announced the implementation of work-from-home (WFH) arrangements for the public sector and government-linked companies (GLCs) effective April 15 as a proactive measure to address the global energy crisis.
In a video message, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the decision, reached at the Cabinet meeting, aims to reduce fuel consumption and ensure the sustainability of the country’s energy supply, which has been affected by the conflict in West Asia.
He said tensions involving Israel, the United States and Iran have disrupted global supply chains, but Malaysia has so far managed to remain resilient by maintaining the price of RON95 petrol at RM1.99 per litre for the time being.
