balisurf: "Upstream" stated the regional Malaysian government is making noises about a 5% backin to the PM-3 concession...

Today I asked Magnus Nordin (CEO Sands Petroleum) about this, and he said it's an internal Malaysian quarrel between the Kuala Lumpur government and the local government, it does not affect IPC/Sands or other oil companies. Malaysian taxes are already too high, we can probably look forward to abolished export tax (20%) and reduced income tax (from 40% to 30%) in the future. Malaysia badly needs to attract new foreign investments in the oil sector. Nordin also said IPC/Sands profits from the devalued Malaysian currency (ringit), most expenses are paid monthly in cheap ringits.
