MELBOURNE: Malaysia, as a claimant state over the South China Sea issue, is firmly committed to the peaceful resolution of disputes in accordance with the universally recognised principles of international law, including the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (Unclos).
Recognising the sensitivity and complexity of the issue, Malaysia’s Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, said Malaysia firmly believes that all parties should exercise self-restraint in conducting activities and avoid actions that would further complicate the situation.
