KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 18 ― The government must make clear Malaysia’s position following the new military deal involving Australia, the US and the UK that would see the three foreign nations police the resource-rich South China Sea and the greater Asian region, Pakatan Harapan said today.
“Malaysia being at the geographical centre of these increasing geopolitical competitions must deliberate and state clearly a position. It said the trilateral military pact, dubbed AUKUS, is a major development in the region as it is backed with an A$90 billion nuclear power submarine and has raised geopolitical tension in Asia.
Yesterday, the US, the UK and Australia announced their security partnership for the Indo-Pacific region amid China’s growing influence in the Asia-Pacific region.
Malaysia should stand together with Asean to issue statement. Not just Malaysia because if not mistaken we have military pack with all these countries.
