Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has assured that Malaysia’s energy supply remains stable despite concerns linked to ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
“Insya-Allah, Insya-Allah, it will be sufficient,” he told reporters briefly when asked about the issue.
However, the prime minister, who is also finance minister, did not provide further details on the government’s measures to ensure energy security.
Earlier, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof said the government is working to maintain sufficient energy supply until December amid disruptions caused by the regional conflict.
He said Malaysia’s current supply is expected to last until July, with ongoing efforts to secure additional resources from overseas.
Anwar had previously noted that the country’s energy supply is projected to remain adequate at least until June.
He also explained that although Malaysia is an energy-producing nation, it remains a net importer as it exports high-quality, premium-grade energy products.
Earlier in the day, Anwar joined about 1,500 worshippers in performing Friday prayers at Masjid Al-Muttaqin in Wangsa Maju.
Dressed in a light purple Baju Melayu and black songkok, he arrived at about 1.30pm and was welcomed by mosque chairman Mursyidi Abd Hamid, committee members, and congregants.
Also present were Wangsa Maju MP Zahir Hassan and Setiawangsa PKR division chief Datuk Afdlin Shauki.
The Friday sermon titled “Arafah: The Awakening of the Soul” was delivered by the mosque imam, Ustaz Shafik, who also led the prayers.
The sermon highlighted the spiritual significance of the Day of Arafah and encouraged unity, reflection, and compassion among the Muslim community.
After the prayers, the prime minister spent time greeting congregants and members of the public, who took the opportunity to shake hands and take photographs before his departure.
