Alaskan officials to seek investors in Asia as Trump touts LNG


TOKYO: Alaska's governor and state representatives will visit Japan and three other Asian countries starting this week to court investors for a natural gas project that President Donald Trump (pic) says could pump trillions of dollars into the US, although Japanese energy firms remain sceptical.

Officials from the state-run Alaska Gasline Development Corporation (AGDC) and development partner Glenfarne Group will visit allied Asian countries "to update industry leaders on Alaska LNG's economic and strategic competitive advantages, and discuss opportunities for participation", said AGDC spokesperson Tim Fitzpatrick.
