Federal Govt will give ‘compassionate payment’ to Kelantan as oil royalty

The Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, said that the government will be paying a compassionate fund or wang ehsan to the Kelantan State government as the form of oil royalty. He said “The payment, which would be in the form of development programmes for the state and its poor, would begin next year. The allotment of wang ehsan to Kelantan would take into consideration the production and sale of petroleum from the Bumi Selatan field. The allotment would be channeled after a detailed report about the sum of gas produced and the procedure is finalised.


The first allocation of wang ehsan for Kelantan is expected in 2010,” he said during the question and answer session.” He was answering the inquiry by the Kubang Kerian PAS representative Salahuddin Ayub on when the oil royalty will be paid to the state. Najib said “In order for the allocation to be beneficial to all Kelantanese, the money would be channeled in the form of programmes for development and to combat poverty. The projects would be carried out by the Federal Government after negotiating with the state government. This decision reflects the Federal Government’s commitment to ensuring that people from all walks of life enjoy the benefits of the country’s development. From a legal aspect, states such as Terengganu and Kelantan are only entitled to oil royalties if the petroleum is drilled from its waters. The offshore oil operations in their waters are defined as an area not more than three nautical miles, which is measured starting from the low watermark or the shoreline of the state. Currently, there is no oil production in the waters of Kelantan or Terengganu. Because of that, from the legal standpoint, Kelantan does not have a right to demand oil royalties, the same as Terengganu
