‘Trump invite not an endorsement of his policies’


PETALING JAYA: Donald Trump’s attendance as President of the United States at the 47th Asean Summit should not be seen as an endorsement of his policies but as part of Malaysia’s diplomatic mandate, says Tunku Nashrul Abaidah.

The Prime Minister’s senior press secretary said the summit, to take place in October, will be historic, as Malaysia, as Asean Chair, is responsible for ensuring that all dialogue partners come to the negotiating table.
