Azerbaijani Parliamentarians Visit Malaysia To Strengthen Inter-parliamentary Cooperation
KUALA LUMPUR, July 1(Bernama) -- Head of the Working Group for the Azerbaijani-Malaysian Interparliamentary Relations in the Azerbaijani Parliament, Vugar Bayramov, undertook a working visit to Malaysia recently to strengthen parliamentary and economic cooperation between the two countries.
He was accompanied by another Member of Parliament Bakhtiyar Aliyev.
The Embassy of Azerbaijan in Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam and Myanmar, in a post on the X platform, said that during the visit, Bayramov and Aliyev paid a courtesy call on Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Johari Abdul.
They also held meetings with the Malaysian Parliament’s Special Select Committee on International Relations and International Trade chairman Wong Chen and West Asia Friendship Group chairman Zahir Hassan.
The delegation later met Dewan Negara President Datuk Awang Bemee Awang Ali Basah, with both sides exchanging views on the further development of relations between the two countries’ parliaments.
According to the embassy, the delegation also met with Malaysian National Chamber of Commerce and Industry secretary-general S.Gnanasambanthan and representatives of more than 20 Malaysian business entities.
“The sides exchanged views on strengthening Azerbaijan-Malaysia economic cooperation, expanding business-to-business ties, exploring new opportunities for trade and investment collaboration, and promoting cooperation between the business communities of both countries,” it said.
Meanwhile, Johari, in his Facebook post, shared details of his discussion with the Azerbaijani delegates, saying the conversation touched on the importance of strengthening diplomatic engagement beyond formal parliamentary exchanges.
“At a time when geopolitical uncertainties continue to test international relations, these people-centred initiatives serve as valuable reminders that diplomacy is ultimately about building human connections that transcend borders and differences,” he said.
