Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – Panahon na para iangat ang kolaborasyon at relasyon ng Pilipinas at Malaysia.
Ayon kay King of Malaysia, His Majesty Al-Sultan Abdullah, dapat palawakin at palakasin pa ang ugnayan ng dalawang bansa sa usapin ng agrikultura digital economy at Halal industry.
Hindi rin naiwasan ni King Abdullah na magbalik tanaw sa magagandang alala niya sa pamilyang Marcos nang bumisita noon sa Manila.
“Malaysia and the Philippines have always shared close and long-standing relations,” pahayag ni King Abdullah.
“Our two countries share many commonalities and strong people-to-people ties. To this day, we have faced many common challenges but we have also achieved much more together, underpinned by shared interest and close cooperation across many areas. It is our fervent hope that the warm relationship will continue to blossom for the mutual benefit of our people and Nations, ” dagdag ni King Abdullah.
Sabi pa nito, itinuturing ng Malaysia ang Pilipinas bilang mahalagang trading partner sa rehiyon.
“Given our close proximity and active involvement in ASEAN, Malaysia regards the Philippines as an important partner. In 2022, the Philippines was Malaysia’s fifth largest trading partner in the region. While Malaysia was the Philippines’ fourth largest trading partner,” pahayag ni King Abdullah.
Aniya ang state visit ni Pangulong Marcos ay napakahalaga ng pagbisita sa Malaysia.
Malaking tulong din aniya ang papel na ginampanan noon ni dating First Lady Imelda Marcos para mapaganda ang relasyon ng dalawang bansa.
“As we gather here, I feel overwhelming to think of our friendship of many years. One such channel through which we have bonded is the sport of polo, which better described as polo diplomacy,” pahayag ni King Abdullah.
“Touching a bit on polo diplomacy, I have fond memories of Manila,” sabi ni King Abdullah kung saan inilunsad nila noon ang Pahang Cup sa Manila Polo Club na nagsisilbing annual event ng polo diplomacy.
“Through spirited matches and shared passion, we have fostered camaraderie and understanding among our people,” the King said. “So, I hope this polo diplomacy or polo legacy will continue with our children, ” dagdag ni King Abdullah.
