Malaysia response to Indian Outreach delegation is highly encouraging

It proves that the Muslim majority countries are not always supporter of Pakistan

It is a myth-busting time.

The myth that Muslims and Muslim countries always stood together and that the Muslim Brotherhood made sense. Let’s also have a little Pakistan-bashing. For a reason, of course. Contrary to the thinking of some, not every Muslim country is a supporter of a Muslim country which doesn’t mind using terror as a weapon. This is a finding of the seven delegations India sent abroad to explain India’s stand on why Pakistan was ‘bad’ and India ‘good’?

Why India launched ‘Operation Sindoor’ and why the delegation led by JD(U) leader Sanjay Jha, which touched down in Kuala Lumpur, found the Pakistanis duplicitous customers? There, in the Muslim-majority Malaysia the Indian delegation found that Pakistani diplomats had asked Malaysia to cancel the Indian delegation’s programmes and leave the Indian delegation in disarray.

Did it work, these machinations of the Pakistanis? No, it did not work. It might have, if it was Turkiye, or Azerbaijan. Perhaps even Iran! But it did not work with Malaysia. The JDU leader's delegation received the full support of Malaysian diplomats. And to think that Malaysia provides a harbour to Indian fugitive Dr. Zakir Naik, whose diatribe against India is a Pakistani day-dream come true. “All programmes of the Indian delegation went as planned,” wrote a section of the Malaysia media.
