KUCHING: Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg will deliver a keynote address titled “Sarawak’s Hydrogen Vision: Catalysing Green Growth for ASEAN and Beyond” at the upcoming World Hydrogen Asia 2025 in Tokyo, Japan.
The event — scheduled to take place from July 8 to 10 — will gather global hydrogen leaders to drive Asia’s shift towards a clean hydrogen economy.
Abang Johari will be one of the main personalities in the international conference, participating as both a keynote speaker and panelist.
His speech will spotlight Sarawak’s leadership in pioneering the hydrogen economy in Southeast Asia, particularly through the recent launch of the Sarawak Hydrogen Economy Roadmap.
The address is expected to cover Sarawak’s integrated strategy for renewable energy development, its commitment to public-private partnerships, and ongoing investments in hydrogen technology, from green mobility to export readiness.
Meanwhile, Sarawak has positioned itself as a regional frontrunner in green hydrogen development, capitalising on its abundant hydropower resources, well-defined policy direction, and international collaborations.
The Premier’s participation at the Tokyo conference underscores the growing global recognition of Sarawak’s role in shaping Asia’s clean energy future.
World Hydrogen Asia 2025 is part of the global World Hydrogen Series where policymakers, investors and industry leaders converge to chart the future of hydrogen deployment across regional and global supply chains.
