Malaysia-Singapore Spat won’t Affect ASEAN, Says Research Institute
The bilateral disputes between Malaysia and Singapore will not slow down the overall integration of the grouping, the CIMB Asean Research Institute (CARI) said.
This is because the overall relations between the two nations are not affected by the differences, Mohd Munir Abdul Majid, chairman of the institute, said.
“When you are negotiating in good faith with mutual respect, you will discover mutual interest,” he told Bernama at the end of the Asean Roundtable Series here today.
CARI and the Asean Business Club, in partnership with the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), hosted the Asean Roundtable Series themed “Future of Asean Trade: Tackling Non-Tariff Barriers in the New Trade Order”.
