DOHA, Nov 10 — Malaysia’s appointment as chair of Committee 5 at the 2026 International Telecommunication Union Plenipotentiary Conference (ITU PP-26) reflects the international community’s confidence in the country’s ability to play a neutral role in balancing the interests of various parties.
Committee 5 chair Eneng Faridah Iskandar said the appointment was not merely a personal recognition but a major achievement for Malaysia, according to a report published by Bernama.
“I think this is not only an achievement (but) actually an achievement for the country because Malaysia is seen as a neutral country that can accept the views of all parties.
“So, as chair, our task is to balance the interests and wishes of all parties, and we must be fair,” she told Bernama and RTM here today.
