Contractors Urged To Stop Bad Practices

BELAIT
Saturday, February 11, 2012

THE EDPMO is urging Bruneian oil and gas contractors to stop the "bad practice" of being agents and simply collecting commission as many are currently still doing, which does not benefit the country and its people.

Minister at the Energy Department under the Prime Minister's Office (EDPMO), Pehin Datu Singamanteri Colonel (Rtd) Dato Seri Setia (Dr) Hj Mohammad Yasmin Hj Umar, said during a speech on Thursday that with the new Local Business Development (LBD) Framework Directive, the department hopes that in future, Bruneian companies will be managed and owned by locals; that they own their key assets such as vessels and rigs instead of leasing from third parties; and carry out commercial activities as their own.

Pehin Dato Hj Yasmin when addressing members of the oil and gas industry at the Pusat Insani Seria Community Hall, said that there needs to be a mindset change on "bad practices".
