Raja Perlis berkenan terima menghadap duta besar Indonesia

Raja Perlis, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Jamalullail, graciously received Indonesia's Ambassador to Malaysia, Mohammad Iman Hascarya, at the Blue Reception Hall within Arau Palace today. According to the statement, the meeting underscored the deepening and close ties between Malaysia and Indonesia, particularly between Perlis and the Indonesian archipelago due to their geographical proximity.

Perlis, bordering Thailand and close to northern Sumatra, holds strategic advantages in strengthening cross-border relations and regional cooperation networks.

The ambassador in attendance was Wanton Saragih Sidauruk, General Consul of the Republic of Indonesia in Penang. The statement highlighted the enhancement of relations between Perlis and Indonesia through cooperation in education, particularly with the establishment of the Muhammadiyah University of Malaysia (Umam) in the state. Umam is the first campus of Muhammadiyah University outside Indonesia and recently appointed Raja Muda Perlis, Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail, as its new chancellor (on Sept 14).
