KUALA LUMPUR, April 10 — One oil tanker carrying Malaysian-bound crude from the Persian Gulf has broken down, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said today.
He gave an assurance that the incident would not have any impact on Malaysia’s petrol supply for now, adding that another tanker linked to the same shipment has already docked.
“One of the vessels had broken down and is now being repaired at a port, but God willing this won’t affect oil supply, and we will continue to have sufficient petrol until May,” he told reporters after performing Friday prayers at a mosque in Cheras here.
