Petrochemical and engineering units of Petronas, Malaysia's national oil company will soon sell its shares to public to shrink the government's stake in industry and boost economic growth.

Revenue of petrochemical business on 31 March of last year was RM13 billion ($5.7 billion) and revenue of Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering was more than RM4 billion.

According to Petronas’s President and Chief Executive, Shamsul Azhar Abbas, “These two new listings will allow the investing public to participate directly in some of Petronas businesses.”
