In an engaging chat with CMG's Zhang Hong and Astro AWANI's Luqman, Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim shared his thoughts on fostering free trade, openness, and resilient partnerships. Amid rapid growth and transformative change, PM Anwar stressed that Malaysia is committed to standing firm and not "succumbing to external pressure." He also highlighted the significant role of cooperation with the Chinese mainland, which has greatly contributed to Malaysia's development through trade, investment, and cultural exchanges.
During a recent state visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping from April 15 to April 17—as part of his tour across Southeast Asia including Vietnam and Cambodia—the collaborative spirit was unmistakable. With Malaysia set to hold the rotating chairmanship of ASEAN in 2025, the focus is on strengthening regional stability and forging innovative connections. This vision resonates with young tech enthusiasts and early professionals who see a promising blend of technology, culture, and sustainable growth across bustling cities in South and Southeast Asia. 🚀
From vibrant street food scenes in Kuala Lumpur to the dynamic tech hubs in Singapore, the narrative of regional cooperation is more relatable than ever. PM Anwar’s message reinforces that strategic alliances not only fortify economic ties but also nurture a future where creativity and progress go hand in hand. It’s an exciting time for everyone passionate about shaping a better tomorrow through collaboration and innovation. 🎉
