Sarawak unlikely to export power to the peninsula

The electricity sector output grew 8.7% compared with a 9.6% growth recorded in May 2016.

This is because "all the power Sarawak has built” has been sold, he said Sunday, responding for the first time on renewed talks of Bakun supplying to the peninsula.
