KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia and Indonesia have agreed to leverage the strengths of both countries to enhance cooperation in various fields, including defence, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
He said that Indonesia has extensive experience in defence, and Malaysia is ready to explore any potential cooperation opportunities.
“Malaysia is ready to explore and see what we can gain from Indonesia, which is certainly more important than acquiring or purchasing from other countries.
“Nevertheless, this will only happen through, not only mutual understanding, but also closeness, confidence, and trust among the leaders and their leadership teams.”
Anwar said this at a joint press conference with visiting Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto at the PETRONAS Twin Towers here, today.
