Peninsula firms hired for Sabah solar plant due to lack of local expertise, says Ecos

KOTA KINABALU: The appointment of peninsula-based electrical contractors for a solar power plant was due to the lack of contractors in the state, says the Energy Commission of Sabah (Ecos).

Ecos CEO Datuk Abdul Nasser Abdul Wahid said that there was a lack of local contractors which necessitated the opening of registration to non-Sabahan contractors.
