KUALA LUMPUR: Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas), in meeting stakeholders' demand, has contributed almost RM1.2 trillion since 1976 in the spirit of giving out to the society, especially when the country is grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic.

President and group chief executive officer Tengku Muhammad Taufik Tengku Aziz said the contributions included those to the Federal government, state governments, tax collection, and payment of oil royalty, and the rate would likely increase in the long run.
