Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and her Malaysian counterpart, Anwar Ibrahim, will hold talks on Wednesday expected to focus on boosting cooperation in the energy sector. This move comes as Japan works to diversify its energy supply sources amid instability stemming from the conflict in the Middle East.
According to informed sources, the two leaders will discuss measures to enhance bilateral cooperation, including securing stable energy supplies and advancing renewable energy projects. Malaysia, as one of Southeast Asia’s major oil and gas producers, is seen as a key partner in Japan’s energy security strategy.
The talks are also expected to address shared regional and international issues, with the aim of strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries. Japan has long regarded Malaysia as a key partner in the region, particularly in energy and infrastructure.
