Kota Kinabalu, 18 September 2025 — Sabah Energy Corporation Sdn. Bhd. (SEC), in collaboration with PETRONAS, successfully hosted the Terminal & Right-of-Way (ROW) Gas Pipeline Safety Briefing Programme at Nexus Resort & Spa Karambunai today.
The initiative brought together industry stakeholders, community partners, and safety practitioners with the common goal of strengthening awareness and reinforcing best practices in gas pipeline safety.
The programme focused on three key objectives: enhancing understanding of terminal and pipeline safety, sharing ROW safety guidelines, and promoting collaboration between SEC, PETRONAS, and local communities.
The event reinforced the importance of safeguarding operational facilities and surrounding communities, highlighting that safety remains central to energy operations. The collaboration reflects the ongoing efforts by SEC and PETRONAS to ensure safe and reliable energy delivery across Sabah, while fostering stronger partnerships with local stakeholders.
Sabah Energy Corporation Sdn Bhd (SEC) has been awarded the ISO 37001:2016 Anti-Bribery Management Systems (ABMS) certification by SIRIM QAS International Sdn Bhd, marking another significant step in the corporation’s commitment to integrity and good governance.
The ISO 37001 standard, recognised globally, provides organisations with a framework to prevent, detect, and address bribery risks within their operations. By attaining this certification, SEC reaffirms its dedication to upholding transparency, accountability, and ethical business practices.
This achievement is in line with the National Anti-Corruption Strategy (NACS) 2024–2028, led by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, which envisions a zero-corruption, high-integrity Malaysia, a vision SEC fully supports.
The ABMS certification is the third formal management system adopted by SEC, following:
ISO 9001 Quality Management System (QMS), implemented in 1999
ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management System (ISMS), implemented in 2017
With the addition of ISO 37001, SEC strengthens its integrated approach to quality, security, and governance, reinforcing its position as a responsible and trustworthy energy corporation.
Over the months of June and July, Sabah Energy Corporation (SEC) saw the successful rollout of two meaningful green initiatives under its ongoing Green Ambassador Program, an internal platform that empowers staff to propose and implement sustainable CSR ideas over a six-month period. The two projects, the Green Corner and the Waste Walk, reflect a growing culture of environmental responsibility at SEC, driven not by mandates, but by the passion and initiative of its people.
The Green Corner project, spearheaded by the Internal Audit, Integrity and Governance Division, has reimagined underused corners across all divisions at Menara SEC. What were once empty spaces are now lush, welcoming corners filled with air-purifying plants such as Sansevieria and Ficus lyrata. These green corners, thoughtfully arranged and personalised by volunteers, now bring a breath of fresh air and a sense of calm into the workplace, demonstrating how even the smallest spaces can flourish with a little care and creativity.
In contrast, the Waste Walk program, led by the CEO’s Office Division, takes environmental stewardship beyond the office walls. Every Friday evening after work, SEC volunteers dedicate an hour to walking around Menara SEC and its surrounding areas, including Tamu KPD and the scenic Likas Bay, to collect waste.
With Menara SEC located along the iconic Likas Bay, facing the vast South China Sea, the initiative highlights the importance of protecting and preserving the environment we are privileged to work in. By stepping outside, rolling up their sleeves, and taking direct action, SEC staff are setting an example, showing that caring for our environment starts with the community and is everyone’s shared responsibility.
These initiatives would not have come to life without the spirit of volunteerism demonstrated by SEC employees. Their contributions serve as a powerful reminder that meaningful change doesn’t always come from grand strategies or sweeping declarations. Often, it begins with quiet dedication and consistent acts of care, proof that sustainability at SEC is not just a top-down agenda, but a value nurtured from within.
Kota Kinabalu, 17 July – Sabah Energy Corporation Sdn Bhd (SEC) officially launched its Skill Enhancement Career Advancement (SECA) 2.0 program and handed over offer letters to eight selected graduates from Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS), Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Sabah, and ADTec Kota Kinabalu.
The event, held at the Mengalong Auditorium, Menara SEC, was officiated by Ir. Ts. Ahmad Jafar, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of SEC, representing CEO Datuk Adzmir Abd Rahman.
Also present to witness the handover ceremony were Associate Professor Rozita @ Uji Mohammed, Rector of UiTM Sabah; Associate Professor Dr. Sidah Idris, Director of the Centre for Development of Career and Entrepreneurship (CeDEC), UMS; and Ir. Sudirman Hammade, Director of ADTec Kota Kinabalu.
Following the successful implementation of SECA 1.0 in 2024, which saw participation from graduates of UMS and ADTec Labuan, SECA 2.0 marks the continuation and expansion of SEC’s CSR initiative to build and empower local talent through structured industrial training.
This year, UiTM Sabah and ADTec Kota Kinabalu joined as new education partners, further broadening the program’s reach and impact. The SECA program specifically targets graduates from B40 and underprivileged backgrounds who have demonstrated strong academic performance but have not yet secured employment. Participants will undergo six months of hands-on industrial training, receive a competitive monthly allowance, and stand a chance to be absorbed into SEC’s workforce upon completion.
In his address, Ir. Ts. Ahmad Jafar reaffirmed SEC’s commitment to youth development and capacity-building in Sabah. “SECA is not just a training platform, instead a launchpad for future careers. We are proud to continue this effort with SECA 2.0 and welcome our new academic collaborators in this journey.”
SEC also expressed its sincere appreciation to its education partners, UMS, UiTM Sabah, and ADTec Kota Kinabalu, for their collaboration in supporting the program’s mission. Plans are underway to expand SECA to more institutions in the coming years, as part of SEC’s broader commitment to shaping a skilled, resilient, and future-ready local workforce.
