With conflict in the Middle East impacting Australia, we must shore up our fuel supply.

That’s why Prime Minister of Malaysia Anwar Ibrahim and I have agreed a Joint Statement on Energy Security to help keep fuel flowing between our countries.

More than ever, it’s important we work with our international partners to make sure Australia has the fuel it needs.

Because our number one priority is delivering for Australians.

I wholeheartedly welcome the latest development in the current US-Iran war, in respect of the ten-point plan as proposed by Iran and positively received by the US.

This proposal augurs well for the restoration of peace and stability, not only to the region but also the rest of the world. It is earnestly hoped that the negotiation process will be conducted in good faith, with a firm resolve to seeking lasting resolution to the issues currently facing the region. Peace talks cannot succeed if the proceedings are cloaked in deception and double-dealing.

It is imperative that the ten-point plan be translated into a comprehensive peace deal, not just for Iran, but also for Iraq, Lebanon and Yemen. Further, it is incumbent upon the parties concerned to ensure the end of the genocide and dispossession of the people of Palestine, not least in Gaza.

I once again extend our sincere congratulations and deep appreciation to Pakistan and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for the tireless and courageous diplomacy that helped bring this moment about. Pakistan's willingness to speak to all sides, without fear or favour, reflects the highest traditions of Muslim solidarity and international responsibility. Malaysia stands ready to support and complement all efforts in this regard.

We also call on the international community to ensure unimpeded humanitarian access to all civilian populations affected by this war.

Let this be a turning point towards lasting peace. The world cannot afford for it to be anything less.

With the greatest humility, I am pleased to announce that the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America, along with their allies, have agreed to an immediate ceasefire everywhere including Lebanon and elsewhere, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
I warmly welcome the sagacious gesture and extend deepest gratitude to the leadership of both the countries and invite their delegations to Islamabad on Friday, 10th April 2026, to further negotiate for a conclusive agreement to settle all disputes.
Both parties have displayed remarkable wisdom and understanding and have remained constructively engaged in furthering the cause of peace and stability. We earnestly hope, that the ‘Islamabad Talks’ succeed in achieving sustainable peace and wish to share more good news in coming days!

HANYA MALAYSIA DAN CHINA SAHAJA BOLEH BERTAHAN DALAM KRISIS MINYAK INI- JP MORGAN

Ketua JP Morgan Asia, Rajiv Batra dalam wawancaranya bersama CNBC International menyatakan dalam kalangan negara Asia. Hanya Ekonomi Malaysia dan China sahaja boleh bertahan dan sangat kukuh dalam hadapi Krisis Minyak susulan Penutupan Selat Hormuz dan Perang US Iran

Malaysia mempunyai beberapa lapisan ekonomi yang kukuh antaranya merupakan Pengeksport Tenaga Bersih kepada dunia. Rajiv juga menyatakan yang dasar kerajaan mengurangkan Defisit kewangan kerajaan membolehkan kewangan Kerajaan Malaysia kukuh dan impak krisis ini boleh dikawal. Harga barangan Malaysia tidak terjejas sangat kerana kerajaan berjaya kawal kadar inflasi ketika ini.

3 faktor ini menyebabkan ia menyokong ekuiti sebagai aset penting Malaysia dan kekuatan Ringgit Malaysia. Disebabkan analisis ini hanya China dan Malaysia sahaja boleh bertahan dalam krisis ini

Untuk Negara Asia yang lain. Rajiv Batra menyatakan ia perlu dilihat dalam cara kerajaan mengendalikan masalah ini. Dan ada negara yang sampai masa perlu korbankan sama ada pertumbuhan ekonomi atau kekuatan kewangan kerajaan jika konflik ini berpanjangan

PM Malaysia Anwar Ibrahim: negosiasi dg Iran harus bertujuan untuk mengakhiri perang, bukan skdr gencatan senjata. Iran berhak mempertahankan kedaulatannya, melawan serangan AS-Isr.

Received a telephone call from my brother H.E. Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Prime Minister of Malaysia, this morning. We exchanged warm Eid-ul-Fitr greetings and prayed for unity and progress of the Ummah.

I expressed my deep appreciation to him for his strong support for Pakistan’s sincere efforts to advance de-escalation and dialogue in the Middle East. We remain firmly committed to working together and also with other brotherly countries for ending ongoing hostilities and fostering peace and stability in the region.

Bugün Malezya Başbakanı, kardeşim Enver İbrahim ile Cumhurbaşkanlığı Külliyemizde bir araya geldik, Yüksek Düzeyli Stratejik İş Birliği Konseyimizin ilk toplantısını icra ettik. 🇹🇷🇲🇾

İlişkilerimizin ahdi zeminini güçlendirecek belgelere imza attık.

Malezya, ASEAN bölgesindeki en büyük ticaret ortağımız konumunda. Ayrıca aramızda bir Serbest Ticaret Anlaşması da mevcut.

Ortak çabalarımızla ticaretimizi dengeli ve sürdürülebilir bir şekilde 10 milyar dolar hedefine taşıyabileceğimize samimiyetle inanıyorum.

Bugünkü görüşmelerimizde savunma sanayisi konularını da ele aldık.

Önümüzdeki dönemde kazan-kazan ilkesinden hareketle bu alanda atabileceğimiz müşterek adımları değerlendirmeyi sürdüreceğiz.

Bugün bir kez daha uluslararası meselelerde benzer görüşlerde olduğumuzu memnuniyetle gördüm.

Bilhassa Gazze konusunu birlikte yakından takip etmeye devam edeceğiz.

Ziyaret vesilesiyle Türkiye-Malezya kardeşliğine yaptığı eşsiz katkılardan ötürü Sayın Başbakan’a Cumhuriyet Nişanımızı da tevcih ettik.

Rabb’im dayanışmamızı, muhabbetimizi daim eylesin…

I have followed developments in Venezuela with grave concern. The leader of Venezuela and his wife were seized in a United States military operation of unusual scope and nature. Such actions constitute a clear violation of international law and amount to an unlawful use of force against a sovereign state.

President Maduro and his wife must be released without any undue delay. Whatever may be the reasons, the forcible removal of a sitting head of government through external action sets a dangerous precedent. It erodes fundamental restraints on the use of power between states and weakens the legal framework that underpins international order.

It is for the people of Venezuela to determine their own political future. As history has shown, abrupt changes in leadership brought about through external force will bring more harm than good, what more in a country already grappling with prolonged economic hardship and deep social strain.

Malaysia regards respect for international law and sovereignty as paramount to peaceful relations between states. Constructive engagement, dialogue and de-escalation remain the most credible path towards an outcome that protects civilians and allows Venezuelans to pursue their legitimate aspirations without further harm.

Malaysian Prime Minister says President Maduro must be released without any undue delay, whatever the reasons may be.

[Anwar Ibrahim @anwaribrahim]

I welcome the ceasefire agreed by Cambodia and Thailand, which took effect at 12:00 (UTC+7). The decision to halt fighting and to hold forces in place reflects a shared recognition that restraint is required, above all in the interest of civilians.

The Joint Statement sets out practical and positive measures, including verification by the ASEAN Observer Team and direct communication between defence authorities. These provide a basis for stability, and I am hopeful that both sides will carry them out faithfully.

As Malaysia hands over the ASEAN Chair to the Philippines at midnight on 1 January 2026, we will support all efforts to ensure that these undertakings are honoured and that ASEAN’s prestige and credibility as a region of peace are preserved.

Susulan perbincangan saya dengan Presiden Amerika Syarikat, Donald J. Trump, dan mengambil kira ketegangan berterusan di sempadan Kemboja–Thailand, saya telah mengadakan perbualan telefon secara berasingan dengan Perdana Menteri Thailand, Anutin Charnvirakul, dan Perdana Menteri Kemboja, Hun Manet.

Dalam perbincangan tersebut, saya menyuarakan kebimbangan serius Malaysia serta menggesa kedua-dua pihak agar menghentikan segala bentuk permusuhan, dan tidak melakukan sebarang tindakan ketenteraan lanjut, termasuk penggunaan kekerasan atau menggerakkan pasukan bersenjata ke barisan hadapan, berkuat kuasa pada jam 10.00 malam, 13 Disember 2025 (UTC+7).

Bagi menyokong usaha meredakan ketegangan dan meningkatkan ketelusan, Malaysia telah meminta penugasan Pasukan Pemerhati ASEAN (ASEAN Observer Team – AOT) yang diketuai oleh Panglima Angkatan Tentera Malaysia untuk memantau situasi di lapangan. Misi ini akan turut disokong oleh pemantauan satelit yang disediakan oleh Kerajaan Amerika Syarikat, bermula pada waktu yang sama.

Dapatan pemantauan lapangan dan satelit ini akan dikumpulkan oleh AOT dan dibentangkan pada Mesyuarat Menteri-Menteri Luar ASEAN yang dijadualkan berlangsung pada Selasa, 16 Disember. Laporan tersebut akan memberikan gambaran objektif mengenai situasi semasa, termasuk kedudukan kedua-dua pihak, demi kepentingan akauntabiliti, pembinaan keyakinan serta pemeliharaan keamanan dan kestabilan serantau.

Malaysia kekal fokus untuk bekerjasama rapat dengan rakan-rakan ASEAN dan komuniti antarabangsa bagi memastikan dialog, sikap bertenang dan diplomasi terus menjadi landasan utama.

Following my discussion with US President Donald J. Trump and in light of continued tensions along the Cambodia-Thailand border, I held separate calls with Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul of Thailand and Prime Minister Hun Manet of Cambodia.

During these exchanges, I conveyed Malaysia’s deep concern over the situation and urged both sides to exercise maximum restraint, cease all forms of hostilities and refrain from any further military actions, including the use of force or forward movement of armed units, with effect from 13 December 2025 at 22:00 (UTC+7).

To support de-escalation and promote transparency, I have requested the deployment of the ASEAN Observer Team (AOT), led by the Malaysian Chief of Defence Forces, to monitor developments on the ground. This mission will be complemented by satellite monitoring capabilities provided by the United States Government, commencing at the same time.

Findings from the satellite monitoring and field observations will be compiled by the AOT and presented at an ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting on Tuesday, 16 December. The report will provide an objective account of the situation, including the positions of both parties, in the interest of accountability, confidence-building and the preservation of peace and stability in the region.

Malaysia remains committed to working closely with ASEAN partners and the international community to ensure that dialogue, restraint and diplomacy prevail.
