JAKARTA, Oct 21 — Malaysia has proposed establishing a cross-ministerial High-Level Committee (HLC) with Indonesia to accelerate bilateral cooperation in the creative industries and creative economy.
Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil said that the committee would facilitate discussions on collaborative initiatives, including those that could be formalised through memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with relevant Indonesian ministries.
He said that the proposed mechanism would also help coordinate cooperation across different ministerial portfolios, as areas overseen by Malaysia’s Communications Ministry fell under several ministries in Indonesia, including those responsible for culture, communications and the creative economy.
