KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 6 — Malaysia will facilitate the export of agricultural and livestock products from Pakistan, including beef and other types of meat, to the country as part of efforts to strengthen bilateral economic cooperation between the two nations, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
In agriculture, Malaysia has increased the import of rice from Pakistan, he said at a press conference in conjunction with Pakistani Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif’s visit to Malaysia today.
