Malaysia PM says Petronas retains national role after Sarawak gas deal

Quick Summary:

KUALA LUMPUR : Malaysian state energy firm Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) will retain its national authority over oil and gas even as Petroleum Sarawak Berhad (Petros) takes control of gas distribution in Sarawak state, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said.

Petronas and Petros did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for comment.

Sarawak, on Borneo island, has long sought greater control of its natural resources.
