Malaysia to host Thailand-Cambodia border talks in Kuala Lumpur

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Armed Forces will oversee the General Border Committee (GBC) Meeting between Thailand and Cambodia, scheduled in Kuala Lumpur from August 4 to 7. The session aims to resolve ongoing border conflicts under a ceasefire agreement mediated by Malaysia on July 28. A statement from the Defence Intelligence and Strategic Communications Division confirmed Malaysia's role as a neutral venue for the talks. 'The Terms of Reference for deploying Defence Attachés and an ASEAN Monitoring Group will be key agenda items,' it said. The ceasefire, enforced since July 28, followed negotiations led by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in Putrajaya. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet and Thailand's Acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai agreed to de-escalate tensions after a fatal clash near Preah Vihear in May. The 817-kilometre undemarcated border has been a persistent diplomatic challenge between the two nations. - Bernama

Unity key to strength, prosperity: Chief Minister

Published on: Saturday, August 02, 2025 Published on: Sat, Aug 02, 2025 Text Size: Hajiji, accompanied by Finance Minister Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun, flagging off the Kembara Merdeka Jalur Gemilang at the National Month, Sabah Day and Fly the Flag Campaign 2025 launch ceremony. Kota Kinabalu: The unity of the diverse races and religions in Sabah is the key to the State's strength and prosperity, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor. He urged all citizens to continue preserving the harmony enjoyed today as the most valuable legacy for future generations. 'Unity in diversity is Sabah's true strength. It is not a weakness, rather it is a uniqueness that we should be proud of and safeguard,' he said when launching the National Month, Sabah Day and Fly the Flag Campaign 2025 at The Magellan Sutera Resort, here, Friday. The Chief Minister said every individual is responsible for making places like schools, workplaces, business premises, places of worship and digital platforms to strengthen understanding, rather than sowing division. On the progress of Sabah's development, he said the achievements of the Hala Tuju Sabah Maju Jaya (SMJ) 1.0 as of May 2025 showed encouraging success, with an average implementation rate reaching 94 per cent of the 467 initiatives planned. 'Among sectors that continue to be prioritised are agriculture, industry and tourism, along with efforts to enhance human capital, the peoples' wellbeing, infrastructure networks and environmental sustainability,' he said. Hajiji said various forms of assistance have also been provided to the people, including access to education and introducing the Sabah People's Protection Insurance Scheme that offers comprehensive benefits to citizens. He also urged all segments of society to fly the Jalur Gemilang everywhere, as a symbol of loyalty and love for the nation. 'Today's launch is not just a symbolic event, but a call for us to understand the true meaning of independence - not just freedom from colonisation, but also freedom from poverty and division,' he said. The National Day and Sabah Day celebration, held every August, is a historic moment that reminds the people of the struggle of their forefathers in defending the homeland and the dignity of the nation. 'As Malaysians in Sabah, we have a great responsibility to safeguard the blessings of independence and continue this legacy of struggle,' said Hajiji. The launching event was marked by the handing over of Jalur Gemilang and Sabah flags to State and Federal Government departments and agencies, representatives of associations and the launch of the Merdeka Jalur Gemilang Expedition. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
