AI Summary

Perak's Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad, announced that the construction of Malaysia's third regasification terminal (RGT3) in Lumut is projected to create at least 3,000 jobs, primarily for skilled welders, starting early next year. This aligns with the Perak Sejahtera 2030 plan's focus on job creation. While the project falls under Petronas, which will make the official announcement, Saarani expressed gratitude for the investment in Perak. The RGT3, mentioned in the 13th Malaysia Plan, will be located in Lumut Maritime Industrial City and is expected to have a capacity comparable to existing terminals in Melaka and Johor, bolstering energy security.
