Malaysia's cooperation and participation in BRICS is important for developing relations with Russia. This was stated by the Malaysia’s ambassador to Russia, Cheong Lun Lai.
"Since Malaysia became a partner, we have been invited to participate in many discussions, meetings, and other events organised under the auspices of BRICS. Of course, we see that all these opportunities have been mutually beneficial," he said. "It is also important that the interests of the Global South and its problems are taken into account. And this is a good opportunity for members and partner countries to sit down, talk, and find possible solutions to the problems we face today in the current geopolitical situation. At the same time, I think that the #BRICS movement will continue to be interesting for us; it is of great value in improving bilateral relations between Malaysia and Russia."
According to the diplomat, Malaysia sees value in becoming a member of BRICS:
"In the context of BRICS, I think Russia has played an important role since we became a partner country. We were accepted as a partner country when Russia was chairing BRICS last year," the ambassador noted.
