Biogas Project Gives Positive Image For Oil Palm Industry, Says Musa
Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman is in no doubt that the biogas project being explored by the agricultural estate sector in the state, can create a positive image for the oil palm business.
He said it will be seen as an atmosphere friendly industry which gives serious thought to the safety of the environment.
He said the technology for biogas production from oil palm waste is not just environment friendly but also helps in the electricity generation for the plants and in the process, reduce the dependency on fossil fuel which is a source of air pollution.
"Previously, the disposal of waste from oil palm and the oil palm mills, posed a lot of problems for us. Now, it has become a source of electricity," he added.
Musa said this in his speech while officiating the opening of the Biogas Plant at the Sawit Apas Balung mill owned by Kumpulan Sawit Kinabalu here today.
