BEIJING: The challenges in the South China Sea, where Malaysia and China are among the countries laying overlapping territorial claims, will not affect the close friendship between the military forces of the two nations, said Royal Malaysian Navy chief Admiral Datuk Seri Ahmad Kamarulzaman Ahmad Badaruddin.  

Both nations prefer to focus on enhancing collaboration and cooperation with “deep and sincere friendship" as the strong foundation, he said Tuesday during his visit to China.
