Najib calls on cooperation to ensure regional stability and security

PUTRAJAYA: Regional states must ensure effective co-operation among themselves to secure stability and security in the area, including by allowing issues be resolved amicably in the manner that has been agreed by the countries involved, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said.

The Prime Minister - in sharing six “effective principles” which he believed would help strengthen regional defence and security co-operation with participants in the inaugural Putrajaya Forum - said it was important for countries to agree on a mechanism to resolve issues, be it through negotiations or dialogues.
