China, Malaysia working on permanent mutual visa-free policy: envoy

Minister at China’s Embassy here says introduction of waivers between the two nations boosted tourism, people-to-people exchanges

KUALA LUMPUR – China and Malaysia are actively working toward a reciprocal permanent visa-free policy according to the minister at China’s Embassy in Malaysia.  

Zheng Xuefang said that the introduction of reciprocal visa waivers between China and Malaysia has helped promote tourism and people-to-people exchanges. 

Zheng said this in a meeting with Bernama’s chairman Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai during his courtesy visit to the national news agency, here yesterday.

Last December, the Malaysian and Chinese governments announced implementation of the mutual visa-free facilities for citizens of both countries for one year to further promote tourism, trade, and cultural exchanges. 

Malaysia has become a hotspot for Chinese tourists for years.  

Zheng also highlighted the achievement of economic and trade cooperation between both countries, noting that at the beginning of the diplomatic relations, the total bilateral trade volume was only US$200 million (RM939.7 million).

In 2002, the amount exceeded US$10 billion while last year, it reached US$190.24, making China Malaysia’s largest trading partner for 15 consecutive years. – March 7, 2024
