The Malaysian Gas Association (MGA) will be organising the Malaysian Gas Symposium (MyGAS) in 2023, building on the success of previous editions in 2019 and 2021. MyGAS 2023 is scheduled to take place on November 16, 2023, at the KL Convention Centre.
The theme for MyGAS 2023 is "Revitalising the Role of Gas in Energy Transition". This event is expected to bring together more than 250 professionals and key players in the gas industry. The symposium serves as a platform for policymakers and industry stakeholders to gather and explore various aspects of the Malaysian gas industry, including current market conditions, external trends, and potential future developments.
The central focus of the symposium will be on highlighting the renewed significance of natural gas in the context of the global energy transition. As countries worldwide, both developed and developing, confront challenges in the energy sector, natural gas has emerged as a critical energy source. It plays a pivotal role in ensuring energy security in the short term and contributing to the attainment of long-term energy transition goals.
MyGAS 2023 promises to be an essential gathering for those interested in the Malaysian gas industry, energy transition, and the role of natural gas in the evolving energy landscape. It offers a unique opportunity for stakeholders to discuss, collaborate, and gain insights into the industry's direction in the coming years.
