KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today received a courtesy visit from the United Kingdom (UK) Foreign Secretary, David Lammy, in the spirit of strengthening bilateral relations, which have now been elevated to a 'strategic partnership' following his meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer last January.
In a post on platform X, Anwar said Malaysia welcomes closer cooperation in various fields, including investment, energy transition, education, climate change, defence, digitalisation, and artificial intelligence (AI).
"I also welcome more investment from the UK, especially in the semiconductor and green infrastructure sectors, through the Global Industrial Agenda. We also expressed our appreciation for the UK’s active role as a dialogue partner of ASEAN, particularly in supporting humanitarian efforts in Myanmar and calling for a ceasefire and the implementation of the Five-Point Consensus (5PC)," he added.
The Prime Minister also stated that Malaysia-UK relations are becoming more mature and strategic, grounded in shared values – justice, the rule of law, and universal humanity.
