KOTA KINABALU, Oct 8 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s meeting with Myanmar President Min Aung Hlaing today does not constitute recognition of the country’s government but is aimed at resolving the longstanding issue of Myanmar refugees in Malaysia.
Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil said the meeting reflected the government’s use of diplomatic channels to address domestic concerns, particularly those involving Myanmar refugees.
“This meeting does not mean we recognise the Myanmar government. It is intended to find a solution to the longstanding issue of Myanmar refugees in our country,” he said at the opening of the Inanam Sentral National Information Dissemination Centre (NADI) here today.
