LONDON 5th Sept 2025. Honoured to speak on Malaysia, the Commonwealth, and our bilateral ties with the UK at the 1st anniversary of the Malaysian Association UK, held in conjunction with the 62nd Malaysia Day luncheon at the House of Lords, graciously hosted by Baroness Uddin. My remarks were drawn from my Royal Commonwealth Society blog, where I reflect on Malaysia’s place in the Commonwealth.
