: Against the backdrop of escalating regional security challenges including North Korea’s nuclear developments and unilateral attempts to alter the status quo in the East and South China Seas, Japan wants to further cooperate with Malaysia in maintaining and enhancing maritime connectivity and stability in the region.
“Japan also strongly supports mainstreaming the ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific , which shares fundamental principles with FOIP. While promoting such efforts, Japan will further cooperate with Malaysia, which is located at an important sea lane connecting the Indian and the Pacific Oceans.” The ties were cemented with the First ASEAN-Japan Summit held in Kuala Lumpur in 1977 and continues to be built on trust, respect and commitment ever since.Question: How do you see the current state of Malaysia-Japan relations and what are your key priorities for further strengthening the bilateral ties?
Let me also touch upon the plan to establish a branch campus in Malaysia by the University of Tsukuba, one of leading national universities of Japan. This is a new development under the Look East Policy. Preparations are underway to open the branch campus in September next year. In addition to supply chain resilience, which is an important common issue for our two countries, Japan will closely collaborate with Malaysia and other regional partners to produce tangible results early on as well as ensuring prosperity by establishing a regional economic order.
The regional security environment has been becoming increasingly severe, given North Korea’s nuclear and missile development and unilateral attempts to change the status quo by force in the East China Sea and South China Sea. At the G7 Hiroshima Summit, the G7 leaders sent out to international partners beyond the G7 a strong message to uphold a free and open international order based on the rule of law.
At the same time, Japan strongly supports mainstreaming the “ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific ”, which shares fundamental principles with FOIP. Japan continues to make efforts in order for many countries to appreciate the principles of AOIP and to extend their support.
