NEW DELHI: Malaysia, which will assume the chairmanship of Asean next year, will work closely with India and other dialogue partners to ensure that the 10-nation bloc remains at the forefront of regional integration and continues to be a driving force for sustainable development in the region.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said he expected India, being one of Asean’s long-standing dialogue partners, to play a pivotal role as the Asean-India partnership has been instrumental in fostering economic growth, security cooperation, and cultural exchange across the region.
