A First Nations delegation from British Columbia, Canada, was in Kuala Lumpur to deliver a formal complaint to Petronas.

Their complaint centres on Petronas’ investment in LNG Canada and its associated Coastal GasLink pipeline, which they say has violated their Indigenous rights, damaged sacred sites and led to police violence on their territory.

BFM speaks to Wet’suwet’en hereditary chief Na’Moks and Jesse Stoeppler (Gwii Lok’im Gibuu), representing the Wet’suwet’en and Gitxsan Nations, to understand the impacts of this project on their communities and lands, and why they brought their case to Malaysia.
