Malakoff Celebrates 21 Years of Excellence at Prai Power Plant

30 July 2024

After 21 years of operation, Prai Power Plant (“PPP”), owned by Malakoff Corporation Berhad (“Malakoff”), gathered its staff for one last time in a farewell ceremony celebrating 21 years of excellence on 12 July 2024 at the plant in Penang. The plant ceased operations on 19 June 2024, following the expiration of its Power Purchase Agreement (“PPA”).

 

The event was graced by the presence of Encik Mohd Kopli Yunus, Senior Vice President for the Local Generation Division, and Ir. Jauhar Mohamed, PPP Manager. Former plant managers Encik Abdul Rahman Hussin, Encik Anuar Lazim, Ir. Mohd Raziff Embi, as well as former Heads of Maintenance Encik Remmy Rashid and Encik Mazlan Abdullah, were also in attendance.

 

The celebration marked two decades of delivering reliable and sustainable energy to our communities and served as an official platform for bosses and staff to express appreciation towards one another, who have worked tirelessly throughout the plant's operational period.

 

The event also honoured the loyalty of its employees by presenting Long-Term Service Award (“LTSA”) to those who have contributed their efforts since the plant began operations in 2003. The awardees were Azli Mohd Nor, Tan Siong Khoon, Tarmizi Mohd Said, Azizi Sarif, and Suhaini Sulaiman. This award reflects genuine appreciation for their hard work and dedication, fostering a culture of motivation and excellence within the workforce.

 

Malakoff remains proud of the accomplishments and grateful for the dedication of our incredible team, partners and all those who worked hard throughout the operational period. Equipped with advanced technology and featuring a unique single-shaft combined cycle unit configuration, PPP delivered 350 MW of reliable, efficient power to the national grid.

 

Malakoff’s PPP embodies its commitment to Sustainable Development Goal (“SDG”) No. 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth whereover 21 years, it has provided reliable energy, fostering economic development and creating job opportunities in the community. This aligns with Malakoff’s overarching purpose of ‘Enhancing Life, Enriching Communities’, by contributing to local prosperity and supporting sustainable economic growth.
