PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s new trade agreement with the United States, unlike the one Washington signed with Cambodia on the same day, lacks an explicit clause safeguarding national sovereignty, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.
The MCA president said the difference in wording between Article 51 of the Malaysia-US agreement and its Cambodian counterpart raised questions about Malaysia’s ability to retain independent policy choices in future trade or security matters.
