KUALA LUMPUR/NEW DELHI: India's trade minister will not meet with his Malaysian counterpart in Davos next week because of his tight schedule, an Indian trade ministry official said on Sunday (Jan 19), as a spat simmers between the top buyer of palm oil and its biggest supplier.
Hindu-majority India has repeatedly objected to Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad speaking out against a new citizenship law which critics say discriminate against Muslims.
