During a speech in Taipei on Monday, former Malaysian prime minister Mahathir Mohamad lauded the development of Taiwan-Malaysia relations over the years.
Kuala Lumpur has been working to attract more foreign investment in a bid to boost its economic development and “Taiwan has responded well” to that policy, Mahathir said as he delivered a speech titled “Nation building and economic development: the Malaysian experience” at an event organized by the Taipei-based Association of Foreign Relations.
