PETALING JAYA: Business groups are hopeful for more positive bilateral trade and technology transfer between Malaysia and China in the run-up to the first official visit by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to the Middle Kingdom.
“We have experienced several changes of prime ministers in recent years, and some did not get to make any visits due to the pandemic. “The cooperation model is proven to work. China is in the midst of developing similar projects with Indonesia and the Philippines. Beh said the “Two Countries, Twin Halal Parks” project could be viewed as Malaysia’s outstanding and internationally acclaimed halal certification system that could benefit China’s massive halal market.He also called for a less-hassle visa requirement, allowing Chinese visitors visa-on-arrival like what was practised before this.
“This is our Prime Minister’s first visit to China, which coincidentally also has a new administration led by its president Xi Jinping,” said Koong.
