KUCHING, Oct 7: Russia is looking to expand youth and student exchanges with Sarawak, including scholarship and study opportunities, with its Ambassador to Malaysia Naiyl M. Latypov expected to visit the State later this month.
According to a TVS report, Latypov said more than 600 Malaysian students are currently studying in Russia, but there was scope to increase the number through expanded exchange programmes and grants.
“We are expanding these opportunities and increasing the exchange programmes. We are also looking into increasing grants for Malaysian students,” he said in an exclusive interview with TVS on the sidelines of the Paya Besar Global Pulse 2026 even in Kuala Lumpur today.
