CGTN published an article highlighting how visiting Chinese President Xi Jinping has drawn a new development blueprint for China-Malaysia ties for the next 50 years and how the two countries are jointly promoting a high-level strategic community with a shared future to bring more benefits to the two peoples and contribute to regional prosperity.

BEIJING, April 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Last year, China and Malaysia celebrated the 50th anniversary of their diplomatic relations. Drawing a new blueprint of bilateral ties for the next 50 years, visiting Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday called on the two sides to jointly build a high-level strategic China-Malaysia community with a shared future.

To bring more benefits to the two peoples and contribute to regional prosperity, the Chinese president put forward a three-point proposal during his meeting with Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.

Xi called on the two countries to adhere to strategic independence, forge development synergies, and deepen civilizational exchange and mutual learning.

High-quality cooperation

During their meeting, the two leaders both voiced opposition to indiscriminate tariffs, urging joint efforts to resist decoupling and supply chain disruptions with openness and cooperation.

Xi called for responding to the law of the jungle with Asian values of peace, cooperation, openness, and inclusiveness and responding to the unstable and uncertain world with a stable, certain Asia. In the same context, Anwar said that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) will not endorse any unilaterally imposed tariffs.

Expressing China’s willingness to enhance high-quality bilateral cooperation, Xi said the two sides should strengthen cutting-edge cooperation in the digital economy, green economy, blue economy, and artificial intelligence and strengthen the integrated development of the industrial chain, supply chain, value chain, data chain and talent chain.

In his signed article published in Malaysian media outlets, Xi noted that in 2024, China-Malaysia trade reached $212 billion, up by nearly 1,000 times the level at the inception of bilateral diplomatic relations.

China has been Malaysia’s largest trading partner for 16 consecutive years, while Malaysia remains China’s second-largest trading partner and the largest source of imports within the ASEAN.

Malaysia was one of the earliest supporters of the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The two countries signed a BRI memorandum of understanding in 2017 and have since reaped fruitful outcomes such as the “Two Countries, Twin Parks” program and the East Coast Rail Link.

After the meeting, Xi and Anwar witnessed the signing of over 30 bilateral cooperation deals spanning AI, infrastructure and agriculture, showcasing the two sides’ strong commitments to enhancing high-quality cooperation.

Flourishing civilizational exchanges

Beyond trade and investment, China and Malaysia have also seen flourishing cultural exchange and tourism in recent years.

The year 2024 saw nearly 6 million mutual visits between the two countries, which exceeded the pre-COVID level, Xi noted in his article.

This has something to do with the mutual visa exemption policy. The two countries began a mutual visa exemption policy on December 1, 2023. Last June, China agreed to extend the visa exemption policy until the end of the year 2025, and to reciprocate, Malaysia would extend the visa exemption until the end of the year 2026.

Xi on Wednesday said the two sides should take the signing of the mutual visa exemption agreement as an opportunity to vigorously carry out tourism, youth, and local exchanges and deepen cooperation in culture, education, sports, film and media.

The two countries have carried out a new round of cooperative research on giant panda protection and also agreed to jointly apply for the inclusion of the “Lion Dance” project in UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Just last month, the Chinese movie “Ne Zha 2” premiered in Malaysia, where it promptly set new box office records for Chinese films in the market.

As many as 83.6 percent of Malaysian respondents in the latest CGTN poll expressed positive sentiments about China. Meanwhile, the poll also showed 83.8 percent of respondents expressing interest in visiting or studying in China.

Rotterdam, the Netherlands, April 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Global Center on Adaptation (GCA) today hosted an inaugural Ambassadors’ Forum galvanizing global support for accelerating adaptation at speed and at scale. The event, hosted at the GCA’s Rotterdam Headquarters, called on governments, industries and civil society to redouble efforts to build “resilient economies” as the growth engine for the 21^st century.

Ambassadors and senior diplomatic representatives from 50 nations gathered in a show of support and unity for the adaptation and resilience agenda. Delegates committed to spurring sustainable growth, fostering new industries, driving innovation, and unlocking private finance to ease mounting pressures on development aid and public climate finance. The global market for climate adaptation solutions—such as advanced weather analytics, parametric insurance, and water-efficient infrastructure— is projected to be worth USD 2 trillion annually by 2026.

Welcoming the attendees, Professor Patrick V. Verkooijen, President & CEO of the Global Center on Adaptation, lauded the diplomatic community for recognizing that adaptation is not merely a defensive measure but an essential component of global economic strategy: “We are already in the ‘Resilience Endgame’. We must prepare today for the 1.5-degree world. The devastating global impacts we see today need not define the society of tomorrow. The escape plan is to double down on adaptation and capture its incredible economic dividends.” He added that “the Africa Adaptation Acceleration Program, our flagship initiative, the largest adaptation program in the world, has shown us that growth and building resilience are intrinsically linked. But we can do so much more – together. Adaptation is about future-proofing our economies, protecting critical infrastructure, safeguarding food supplies, and ensuring that new opportunities can thrive in changing conditions. By rallying together, we multiply the impact of innovative investments and encourage the ‘resilience dividend’—the powerful, compounding benefits that flow from forward-thinking action.”

Delivering remarks, Professor Jan Peter Balkenende, Former Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Minister of State, and Executive Board Member of the GCA, emphasized that genuine progress on climate resilience will unlock broad-based dividends: “What happens in the most vulnerable countries does not stay there. Climate change amplifies food insecurity, migration, and conflict. In fragile states, environmental stress can become a security threat. Europe and the world must take this seriously. Investing in resilience is not only right — it is wise.” He added that “This is why we need true global cooperation, based on shared interest and shared responsibility.”

Reflecting on adaptation efforts in Africa and beyond, H.E. Halima Mucheke, Ambassador of the Republic of Kenya in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, spoke about the significance of GCA’s new headquarters in Nairobi: “Kenya is proud to host the GCA’s new headquarters in Nairobi which will intensify support for adaptation programs across Africa, leading these programs North-South. Around the world, resilient infrastructure is the hot new investment class. Climate adaptation is a framework for protecting infrastructure, securing food systems and creating new business and job opportunities. And it is being aided by a thriving market in climate solutions.” He added that “The continent’s leading initiative in this area – the Africa Adaptation Acceleration Programme (AAAP) – has already channelled more than $15bn to strengthen essential systems against climate shocks. These funds are helping to secure the adaptability and livelihoods of nearly 60 million vulnerable people in 40 countries. We need to keep scaling this up, working as a global community, North-South, South-South, South-North–all together.”

Following the opening remarks delegates also heard from the lead architect and founder of Powerhouse Company, Nanne de Ru, about how GCA’s European headquarters at the Floating Office Rotterdam is an award-winning sustainable building recognized worldwide as a model for climate-resilient infrastructure.
The reception forms part of GCA’s broader advocacy strategy to advance climate adaptation solutions worldwide—focusing on protecting infrastructure, securing food systems, catalysing economic growth, and fostering global collaboration. By bringing together high-level diplomats, GCA reinforced its role as a leading international organisation in developing and implementing adaptation strategies that bolster economies against intensifying climate shocks.
