Malaysia reaffirms diplomatic approach to maritime border dispute with Indonesia
JAKARTA: Malaysia has consistently pursued a diplomatic and legal approach in addressing maritime border disputes with Indonesia, particularly in the Sulawesi Sea, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said. Speaking at a dialogue with the Association of Malaysian Indonesian Journalists (ISWAMI) and Indonesian media editors, Anwar emphasised Malaysia's adherence to international law and peaceful negotiations. 'We follow the legal path. We do not take an aggressive stance. Both sides must avoid encroaching into each other's territory,' he said. Anwar is currently in Indonesia on a working visit, accompanied by Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg and Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor to facilitate discussions on East Malaysian matters. The Sulawesi Sea dispute, involving overlapping claims between East Kalimantan (Indonesia) and southeastern Sabah (Malaysia), dates back to 1979 when Malaysia published its maritime boundaries map. Tensions escalated in 2005, leading to the formation of ISWAMI, a bilateral media initiative aimed at fostering constructive dialogue on sensitive issues. Malaysia's Foreign Ministry maintains that the ND6 and ND7 oil exploration blocks in the Sulawesi Sea fall within its sovereign territory under international law. This stance is supported by the 2002 International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling on related territorial disputes. – Bernama

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has the vision and capability to steer the country towards a more just and prosperous future, said GTSM president Kamarudin Hussain. KUALA LUMPUR : A group representing taxi drivers has announced plans to hold a rally to express support for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and the unity government at Dataran Merdeka on Sept 27. Dubbed Kekal Anwar, the rally is aimed at highlighting public support for Anwar's leadership and his unity administration's efforts to carry out reforms. Gabungan Teksi SeMalaysia president Kamarudin Hussain said they believe Anwar has the vision and capability to steer the country towards a more just and prosperous future. He also said continued political stability was crucial to sustaining economic development and improving public welfare. 'We may only represent a small segment of society, but we believe our voice and our presence will have an impact not only within the country but also in the eyes of the international community,' Kamarudin, a PKR member, said at a press conference here today.

The former Selayang PKR chief issued a formal invitation to Anwar, who is also PKR president, to attend the rally in person. He also invited students, civil society groups and political parties under both Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional to the rally, urging them to stand together in stating their support for the current government. This follows the PAS Youth-organised Turun Anwar rally which took place at the same location on Saturday, attended by nearly 20,000 people. Multiple opposition leaders had attended the rally, including Perikatan Nasional, Urimai, Muda and former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, with demonstrators voicing dissatisfaction with the government and calling on Anwar to resign.

Malaysia Showcases ASEAN Leadership In Digital Growth And Regional Peace
PETALING JAYA, July 29 (Bernama) -- As ASEAN Chair this year, Malaysia has not only taken bold steps in the digital domain, but also demonstrated effective diplomatic leadership in regional peace and stability, said Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching. She noted that a key milestone was when Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim successfully brokered a peace deal between Thailand and Cambodia over their border dispute, leading to an immediate and unconditional ceasefire. 'This achievement reinforced Malaysia's commitment to ASEAN centrality for help in trade and innovation by ensuring Southeast Asia remains a zone of peace, freedom and neutrality. It also reflects the kind of leadership we aim to carry forward, one that embraces both technological progress and regional solidarity, recognising that a stable neighbourhood is essential for shared prosperity,' she said in her speech at the Malaysia-China Tech & Trade Cooperation Exchange Conference 2025 here today.
