First anniversary: PM Anwar sets new leadership benchmark


KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s relationships with foreign leaders has helped him voice Malaysia's stance on the Palestinian issue at the international stage, including at the 30th Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) Economic Leaders' Meeting in the United States and the Extraordinary Summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Saudi Arabia recently, says a political analyst.

Deputy vice-chancellor for Student Affairs and Alumni at Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) Prof Dr Mohd Izani Mohd Zain said that the good relations established between Anwar and foreign leaders before he even assumed the role of Prime Minister have helped him continue efforts in bilateral cooperation, thereby further strengthening Malaysia's position in international relations and diplomacy.
