KUCHING: The Sarawak government has decided to shelf the controversial Baram hydroelectric power dam in Baram, Miri, says Chief Minister Tan Sri Adenan Satem (pic).

He said this was because the people in Baram did not welcome the dam, which was capable of producing 1,200 megawatts of power and one of the 12 dams that the state had planned to develop.
