MARANG: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has asked the world's largest oil and gas company, Saudi Aramco to invest in Kemaman, Terengganu.

He said Aramco chairman Yasir O. Al-Rumayyan had informed him that the company wanted to make Johor the hub for its expansion in the Southeast Asian region.

"But I said it's okay and I told him to go to Kemaman," he said at the Terengganu Madani Unity Tour ceramah programme at Wakaf Tapai here on Wednesday (Aug 9) night.

Anwar said that when the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah performed the haj recently, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud of Saudi Arabia and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, informed that the country agreed to make Malaysia its largest investment hub in Southeast Asia.

"All this is not because of Anwar Ibrahim, but because of the cooperation of Pakatan Harapan, Barisan Nasional, Sabah and Sarawak. They know our current government is stable," he said.

Meanwhile, Anwar said he would always remember the deeds of two political leaders, the late Tan Sri Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat and the late Datuk Fadzil Noor.

"They set the best example as a Muslim who defended the fate of the people and loved everyone," he said. - Bernama
