KUALA LUMPUR, Nov. 4 (Xinhua) -- Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, currently in China for a week-long visit, on Friday hailed closer ties between the two countries, saying the many agreements signed with China will have deep and lasting benefits for Malaysia.
Summarizing the results of his visit, Najib said in a statement that he is delighted Malaysia and China "have never been closer," as seen in enhanced friendship in many key areas, including trade, defense, security, culture and people-to-people connectivity.
He noted that the business-to-business memorandums of understanding (MoU) and agreements, together with MoUs between the two governments, are "a huge vote of confidence in each other's economies, and the good will and trust that has been built up between China and Malaysia."
The agreements will result in ever stronger economic ties between China and Malaysia, and bring tangible benefits to our people for decades to come, Najib said, adding that benefits include "not just new jobs and improved transport, but also more sustainable power sources and greater security along our coastline."
Najib expressed his gratitude to Chinese leaders who hosted him.
He also noted the need for Malaysia to learn from Chinese entrepreneurs, noting that they will follow up by cooperating with China's biggest digital industry leaders. Enditem
