KUALA LUMPUR: The Foreign Ministry has identified seven major issues and challenges in formulating its Strategic Plan 2026-2030, including armed conflicts, major power rivalry and economic weaponisation, among others, as key concerns in shaping the country's foreign policy direction.
Wisma Putra said that security pressures are intensifying amid escalating tensions stemming from overlapping border and maritime disputes, particularly in a global environment marked by regional instability, ongoing humanitarian crises and the prolonged effects of illegal occupations and blatant violations of territorial integrity.
