RIYADH, 9 March, 2021 (TON): On Monday, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince and Malaysia’s PM met before the talks on Tuesday to sign the MoU (Memorandums of Understanding).

On Saturday,  Muhyiddin Yassin PM of Malaysia reached Jeddah to perform Umrah.

There he was received by the Kingdom’s Ambassador to Malaysia, Mahmoud Qattan, the Gov. of Jeddah Prince Mishael bin Abdul Aziz, and other officials.

In an interview with the media, Abd Razak Abdul Wahab Malaysian ambassador described the long-standing relationship between the Kingdom and Malaysia as when Yassin was first elected into office, Saudi Arabia was the first country he decided to visit. And these visits reinforced the unity between the nations, he said.

“When we talk about bilateral relations, of course, it is very good and warm between the two countries, and it has been for years,” he said.

“The relations are good between people and people, and between government and government, also the private sector.”

However, it is quite noticeable that the ties between the two countries are entering a new era, with many joint initiatives on the horizon, as both the nations hope to seek further strengthening the initiatives through joint collaborative ventures that can further contribute to Vision 2030.
