Concerns over SE takeover

KOTA KINABALU: A consumer group has called on the state government not to take over the running of Sabah Electricity (SE) if there is inadequate funding for it, to prevent destabilising the energy sector.

National Consumer Foundation Malaysia Sabah branch chairman David Chan said the Sabah government should not proceed with the takeover unless it is ready to meet SE’s financial needs and develop long-term sustainability plans.
