KUALA LUMPUR: The use of the Malay language at international forums and bilateral meetings and the "World Family" concept introduced to the international community are among the hallmarks of Malaysia’s international relations under Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.
International relations analysts noted that the Prime Minister, who will be commemorating his first year in office on Aug 20, has been instrumental in empowering the national language up to the international stage and reminding the world that they have to work as a family in overcoming current global challenges.
