Malaysians see Covid-19 as Asean’s most immediate threat, survey finds

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 17 — Nearly eight in 10 Malaysians considered the Covid-19 pandemic as the most immediate threat to Asean, according to a regional survey.

“This concern overtook last year’s top concern which was that of Asean becoming an arena of major power competition and its member states being used as a proxy in major power competition.
