The Malaysian Gas Association (MGA) has urged stakeholders from across the industry to work together to formulate a comprehensive Natural Gas Roadmap to drive the nation’s socio-economic progress by actualising the full potential of Malaysia’s natural gas industry and spurring the low carbon economy. The engagement included a panel discussion among key industry leaders on the country’s current landscape of the gas industry and what needs to be done to further spur growth, particularly in terms of crafting well-defined policies and frameworks. MGA strongly advocates a greater role for natural gas in ensuring Malaysia achieves its long-term vision of becoming a carbon neutral economy and meeting its 21st COP pledge. However, to fulfil the potential of natural gas, considerable and timely investments across the entire value chain from sourcing gas upstream, regasification terminals and delivery through pipelines must be made. As the voice of the industry, MGA is keen to contribute its experience and expertise in drafting the Roadmap in collaboration with all relevant stakeholders.
