Malaysia's TNB beats Chinese, Thai firms for Bangladesh power project

Malaysia's Tenaga Nasional Bhd has been selected by the Bangladesh Power Division for the installation and operations of a 1,320MW coal-fired plant in that country.

China and Thailand power generation companies have also submitted proposals to the Power Division for the project.

A Power Division official told New Age they preferred the Malaysian proposal as it met the criteria set by the ministry.

The power plant, to be installed at either Anwara in Chittagong or Maheshkhali at Cox's Bazar, would be through a joint-venture company owned by the Power Development Board and TNB, according to Bangladesh's "New Age" newspaper.

A delegation, led by the Power Division's additional secretary Md Mofazzel Hossain, will visit Malaysia this month to finalise the memorandum of understanding on the installation and operations of the plant, the officials said.
