Saudi-Malaysian deals give new impetus to bilateral ties
After four deals were signed by Saudi Arabia and Malaysia, experts gave their opinion about them. Dr. Salim Ajajah, an academic at Taif University, said the Kingdom visit will have a positive impact on Saudi economy in particular in technological localization, diversification of investments and trade. Moreover, economic expert Ainain undelined two dimensions of the Kingdom visit to Malaysia: boosting islamic ties with Asian countries and economic and trade aspects. Ali Al-Quraishi,a legal adviser and international arbitrator, said cooperation between the countries has developed into a strategic partnership, as Malaysia joined the saudi-led Operation Decisive Storm to liberate Yemen from Houthi terrorism. Instead the Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) affirmed that King Salman’s visit in Asia boost the OIC’s efforts to enhance political and business cooperation between members countries.
