Xi Arrives in Malaysia, Pledges Deeper Ties Amid Escalating US-China Trade War

KUALA LUMPUR -

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim received Mr Xi on the tarmac of Kuala Lumpur International Airport during a slight drizzle amid tight security in and around the city.

"With this visit, I hope to further deepen our traditional friendship, enhance political mutual trust, advance cooperation in modernisation, promote mutual learning between civilisations, and scale new heights in developing the China-Malaysia community with a shared future," Mr Xi said in an English-language statement released by the Chinese Embassy in Kuala Lumpur.

This is the Chinese leader's second visit to Malaysia since he assumed office in 2013, and follows Datuk Seri Anwar's visit to Beijing in November 2024.
