Kota Kinabalu: The Sabah Oil, Gas & Energy Conference & Exhibition (SOGCE) 2025 wrapped up on a high note with its signature Networking Golf Tournament, held on Saturday, 5 July 2025, at the scenic Sutera Harbour Golf & Country Club.

The event welcomed over 105 golfers across 26 flights, uniting key stakeholders from Malaysia’s oil, gas, and energy sectors — including prominent government officials, industry leaders, and corporate representatives.

The tournament was officially opened with remarks by Ts. Syed Saggaf Syed Ahmad, President of the Malaysian Oil, Gas & Energy Services Council (MOGSC).

In his address, he applauded the growing strength of Sabah’s energy ecosystem and praised the organiser, Dolly Jimayol, Organising Chairperson and her team at Midas Events Management for the remarkable success of SOGCE 2025, calling it a vital platform for regional collaboration and strategic dialogue.

Ts. Syed Saggaf also reaffirmed MOGSC’s commitment to fostering strong partnerships in Sabah, emphasising the importance of synergy in building a resilient and future-ready energy industry.

He pledged MOGSC’s ongoing support for local associations and urged all industry players to unite in shaping a more sustainable and inclusive energy future.

Adding to the event’s prestige was the presence of Y.B. Brig Gen Datuk Haji Al Hambra Tun Juhar, Deputy Speaker, Sabah State Legislative Assembly, whose attendance underscored the significance of high-level engagement and regional inclusivity within Malaysia’s national energy agenda.

Beyond networking, the tournament also championed a strong corporate social responsibility (CSR) component. Proceeds from the event were donated to eight charitable organisations across Sabah, including: Home Tuaran, Pusat Orang-Orang Buta Tuaran, Pertubuhan Pemulihan Dalam Komuniti ( PPDK Tuaran), Rumah Putera Harapan (RPH), Ranau, Rumah Anak Yatim & Asnaf, Kg. Silad, Ranau, Don Bosco Bundu Tuhan, Rumah Anak Yatim Islam Baitul Amin, Pitas, Sabah Cheshire Home

This impactful initiative was made possible thanks to the generous support of sponsors such as MOGAS Sdn Bhd, Mumtaz Energy Sdn Bhd, and BMW Regas Premium Sabah, along with all participating companies whose contributions ensured the event’s success and social impact.

The 2025 SOGCE Networking Golf event delivered a powerful message - collaboration, community, and continuity are the cornerstones of progress for Sabah’s energy sector and beyond.

MOGSC extends its deepest appreciation to all participants, sponsors, and partners, and looks forward to continuing this tradition of industry engagement and community support in future editions.
