Strategic cooperation can boost bilateral relations

Malaysia is an old friend of China in Southeast Asia. Bilateral relations are longstanding and progressing steadily.

With the continuous development of bilateral relations, China-Malaysia strategic cooperation is expected to boost the overall China-ASEAN strategic partnership.

China and Malaysia established diplomatic relations in 1974, which have stood the tests of the Cold War, the Asian financial crisis and the so-called China threat theory, and witnessed sound development in the political, economic and cultural fields.
