This emphasis was highlighted during Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's meeting and talks with Myanmar President Min Aung Hlaing today. Following their joint press conference, Anwar and Min Aung Hlaing attended the Malaysia-Myanmar Cooperation Dialogue at Kompleks Seri Perdana, organized by the Institute of Strategic and International Studies (ISIS) Malaysia. The dialogue complemented efforts to strengthen understanding between the two nations through the involvement of academics, scholars, think tanks, and business communities. Anwar stressed the need to follow up on discussions with concrete actions, encouraging broader participation to translate talks into cooperation that would benefit the people. Min Aung Hlaing left for home after completing a two-day official visit to Malaysia, which began yesterday.",
