KOTA KINABALU: Brunei is keen to sell its electricity to Sabah’s southwestern Sipitang district once its hydro-power plant is completed, Energy, Green Technology and Water Minister Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili said.

Dr Ongkili, who returned after bilateral meetings with his Brunei counterpart Pehin Datuk Dr Mohammad Yasmin Umar, said Brunei was working with Sarawak to build a hydro electricity plant to produce electricity that could be exported to Sabah.
