Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to Malaysia marks a strategic effort to assert China as a more dependable trading partner than the US, especially during ongoing trade tensions and tariffs initiated by the Trump administration. His trip follows significant trade agreements signed in Vietnam and reflects deepening relations with Malaysia under Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Xi's commitment to strengthening cooperation aims to foster stability and prosperity in Southeast Asia and counteract dissatisfaction among ASEAN nations regarding US trade policies.
China is telling us they are a reliable trading partner, more than the US. We never had problems dealing with them, Abdul Aziz told Al Jazeera.
Deepening high-level strategic cooperation was good for the common interests of both China and Malaysia, and good for peace, stability and prosperity in the region.
