Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg declined to comment further on the resolution formula relating to the gas distribution issue involving Petroleum Sarawak Bhd (Petros) and Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) which he disclosed yesterday.
He said it was up to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim to announce the details of the formula.
"I leave it to the prime minister to announce (the details of the resolution formula). Just wait," he said when met by reporters after attending the 4th Brunei Darussalam-Indonesia-Malaysia-Philippines East Asean Growth Area Technical and Vocational Education and Training Conference in Kuching today.
In an interview with a local television station TVSarawak yesterday, Abang Johari was reported as saying that the gas distribution issue could be considered resolved while waiting for the official announcement by Anwar.
He said that the issue of gas distribution only involved the legal aspects, where the Petroleum Development Act 1974, referenced by Petronas, and the Oil Mining Ordinance 1958, enforced by Sarawak, could coexist.
