MALAKOFF Bhd, which owns 90% stakes in the Tanjung Bin power plant, has spent about RM300mil on ground levelling works and temporary buildings to house site office and stores for the country's largest and first coal-fired power station.
“We are now moving into the next stage - construction of the plant's first generator - which is expected to be operational at the end of August 2006,” managing director Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said after the plant's ground breaking by Johor Mentri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman here yesterday.
