PM says Malaysia free to voice views, form ties with any nation

He also mentions despite China-US dispute, we remain on good terms with both

5:39 PM MYT

 

PUTRAJAYA – Malaysia is free to voice its views and stance, including in forging good relationships with any country, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

“Malaysia needs allies and investments, and this country has no intention to go to war with others. We want to be on good terms with every country,” he said during the prime minister’s dialogue session with chief editors and senior editors of the country’s electronic, print and online media here today. 

He said the Look East Policy, which previously only made Japan and South Korea as models of economic development, now also includes China. 

“The Look East Policy (introduced in 1982) (only focused on) Japan and South Korea (because) back then China’s economic situation was gloomy but now China’s economy has made a quantum leap in terms of its technology, industry and strength of its universities. 

“(China President) Xi Jinping also emphasises several interesting matters because he is the only leader who talks about civilisation and values, that is why I say the Look East Policy should comprise China, Japan and South Korea,” he said.  

The Look East Policy was introduced by Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, the fourth prime minister in 1982 to study economic modernisation strategies, especially from Japan and South Korea. 

Anwar, at the same time, said Malaysia’s relationship with the United States remained good despite Malaysia maintaining good ties with China. 

“Before and after (the leadership of US president) Joe Biden, Malaysia’s ties with the United States are still good, but don’t assume that we cannot voice out our opinions. 

“China is our neighbour, it is a major power, it has a good relationship with us, and we are on good terms with it. It has a problem with the US, and that is its problem with the US – why must we meddle more than that?” he said. – December 23, 2023
