without comments

India is Malaysia’s largest trading partner in South Asia while Malaysia is India’s second most important trading partner among Asean countries, next to Singapore.

Malaysia is a growing economy with huge services needs. India, on the other hand, has strength in financial, information technology, banking and insurance sectors that can meet the demand.

There are enormous opportunities in both countries. We have an investor friendly regime. The pace at which the Indian economy is growing and the creation and expansion of infrastructure and other sectors mean the opportunities are limitless.

There’s strong potential for pharmaceuticals  plastics industry besides cooperation in other services sector where India has strengths and advantages.

Both countries have recognised the potential of deepening and diversifying our relations.

For trade to go up to US$15bil, services will have to play an important role as its share in bilateral trade so far is on the lower side. That needs to be raised to a higher level.
