THE 30th ANNIVERSARY OF THE LOOK EAST POLICY
|
|
|
This
year marks the 30th anniversary of the Look East Policy, which was
introduced by then Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir in 1982.
Bilateral relation between Japan and Malaysia has gradually developed
since then. In particular, exchange and study programmes under the Look
East Policy have greatly contributed to exchange of talents, economic
development and mutual understanding of both nations.
Upon entering the 30th anniversary of the Look East Policy, cultural
events, human exchange programmes, symposiums, seminars and public
lectures will be organized throughout the year with the purpose of
further strengthening the bilateral friendship. All these may create a
new era for Japan and Malaysia.
Related bodies in Japan and Malaysia have formed the “Malaysia-Japan
Committee for the 30th anniversary of the Look East Policy”. The
committee hopes to receive applications for inclusion as a 30th
anniversary of Look East Policy event from the public in support of the
30th anniversary Look East Policy.
