Andrian Lasimbang, Former Sabah Indigenous Senator/Activist
*Green Hydrogen: Not as Clean as it Seems*
Related to the development of the promotion of green hydrogen as a clean fuel in the future, by the Sarawak state government, Andrian thought it was not entirely true. Moreover, electricity sources from hydro Bakun, Murum, Batang Ai and Baleh are used to power plants that produce green hydrogen. Green hydrogen is clean, but the construction of hydroelectricity destroys vast forests and releases large amounts of carbon dioxide into the air. Furthermore, in the long term, hydro dams produce methane gas 4 times more polluting than carbon dioxide gas. Therefore, saying that this green hydrogen is 100 percent clean is incorrect. After all, the process of liquefying green hydrogen into gas when it is to be used, requires a hydrogen fuel cell that also contains Rey earth material. This means that the production process and green hydrogen cycle are still polluting.
Political Secretary to Dato Seri Dr. Jeffrey Ketinggan (Deputy Chief Minister of Sabah), Anuar Ghani informed, Sabah loses RM8 million a day when it delays the Nature Conservation Agreement (NCA) with Hock Standard Limited from Singapore to allow an area of 2 million hectares in Sabah to be involved in carbon trading. According to Andrian, the problem is for Sabahans because this agreement was done secretly and kept secret. They also do not know the real issue of the content of the agreement. What Adrian do know is that 2 million hectares of land is involved and but do not know where the land in question is located. As such, Andrian has initiated an initial suit in the Sabah court to uncover the content of the agreement. Other developments indicate that the Attorney General of Sabah has concluded that the agreement is invalid. However, if the collaboration between the Sabah government and companies from Singapore is successful, it will abolish the NCR rights of Sabah natives and 2 million hectares of land will be leased under the control of the Lion Gate Company for 100 years. Of course the people of Sabah objected to this action. In this matter, the Sabah government is urged to reveal the real information.
