Oil and gas exploration activity to go on in South China Sea


PETRONAS will continue with its oil and gas exploration in the South China Sea despite overlapping claims by China over the area, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He said this was because Malaysia considered the area, where the exploration project was being carried out, to be in its territorial waters.
