BEIJING: Ahead of the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Malaysia and China, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has stressed that China is an important neighbour.
“As a trading nation, Malaysia needs to be friends with all countries. I do not see any threat from China,” he said.
“International diplomacy has changed in that no one country can dictate terms. I’m not pessimistic by nature ... I’m an optimist,” he said during a Q&A session at China’s top-ranked Tsinghua University here yesterday. “We need leaders to be visionary and more creative. Take climate change as an example. No country can escape its calamity,” he said.
“This is also what Malaysia Madani is all about. As a small country, Malaysia cannot do everything on its own. We need to be interconnected in order to learn from each other,” he added. “Education is vital to any society wishing to exist beyond its present generation. Universities provide a battleground of ideas, where thoughts are crafted, challenged and refined. Civilisation takes its origins from here,” he added.
