KOTA KINABALU: Shell has reversed an earlier plan to close down its petrol stations in Sabah following a series of discussion with the State Government.
“The State Government welcomes the good news,” said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Haji Noor, commenting on Shell Timur Sdn Bhd’s announcement not to proceed with the closure of its 34 petrol stations in Sabah effective January next year.

Following Shell’s announcement of the impending closure last June, Hajiji met with the Chairwoman of Shell Malaysia, Siti Hurrairah Sulaiman to discuss the matter.
“We have brought this issue to the attention of the Federal Government, we appreciate the Federal Government’s sensitivity to the situation in Sabah and we appreciate that they have listened,” he said.
