President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim have agreed to boost security cooperation and trade ties following their bilateral meeting in Manila on Wednesday.
Anwar — who is in the country for a two-day official visit — said his administration will be"more than happy" to strengthen its multisectoral collaboration with the Philippine government.
This was echoed by Marcos, who bared that the two governments agreed to hold joint initiatives and meetings to combat"transnational crimes and terrorism."
