KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): Malaysia seeks to be the facilitator for conciliation, enabler for cooperation, and builder of consensus as a member of the Human Rights Council, says Foreign Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah.

In a short video message regarding Malaysia’s candidature to the council for the 2022-2024 term, Saifuddin said Malaysia is ready to play its role as a constructive partner and work closely with the member states to advance the global human rights agenda as enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

"In this context, the role of the Human Rights Council is now more vital than ever to ensure that the public health crisis does not turn into a global human rights crisis,” he said in the video, posted on the Foreign Ministry’s official Twitter account, on Friday . "It is in this spirit that Malaysia offers itself as a candidate for the membership of the Human Rights Council for the term 2022-2024,” he said.
