TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, June 24. Since the beginning of this year, bilateral trade between Uzbekistan and Malaysia has increased by 25 percent, reflecting the growing strength of their multifaceted partnership, Trend reports.
This growth was highlighted during a recent meeting when President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev received a delegation led by Malaysia’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Energy Transition and Water Transformation, Fadillah bin Yusof.
The discussions centered on amplifying collaborative synergies,
leveraging the frameworks established during the strategic
engagement in Kuala Lumpur in February.
Both parties articulated a high degree of contentment regarding the
escalation of engagements, reciprocal visits, and interactions
across multiple tiers. The proliferation of joint ventures and the
expansion of direct air routes between the two nations have also
experienced significant growth. A strategic business symposium
showcasing premier enterprises from both nations is slated for
tomorrow.
The significance of leveraging the comprehensive capacity of
economic collaboration and proactively advancing synergistic
initiatives was underscored. Key focus areas encompass commerce,
technological advancement, sustainable energy solutions,
hydrocarbon exploration and production, chemical sector dynamics,
geological assessments, water resource optimization, electronic and
semiconductor manufacturing, healthcare systems, workforce
enhancement, and the expansion of religious tourism
initiatives.

Minister Anwar Ibrahim executed a Joint Statement aimed at
enhancing bilateral synergies towards establishing a strategic
partnership.
