“With the agreement such as this, a more stable business and investment situation will be created to spur the oil and gas industry in the state,” he said in a statement, in response to an agreement reached earlier between the state government and Petronas over the imposition of state sales tax on petroleum products and other related issues.

In a joint statement, Sarawak Assistant Minister of Law, State-Federal Relations and Project Monitoring Datuk Sharifah Hasidah Sayeed Aman Ghazali and Petronas chairman Datuk Ahmad Nizam Salleh said legal disputes between the state government and Petronas over the imposition of the 5 per cent state sales tax on petroleum products and other related issues have resolved.
