KUALA LUMPUR: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has described Malaysia as being "really at the centre” of efforts to accelerate the long-discussed ASEAN Power Grid (APG) initiative, citing growing momentum in regional power trade involving Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Vietnam.
ADB regional director and head of the Singapore office Jackie Surtani said the region is finally seeing concrete steps being taken to connect national grids and enable cross-border electricity flows after three decades of discussions on the APG.
