Building on the foundation laid with the signing of a joint PhD Supervision Agreement on January 11, 2022, this visit sought to reinforce and expand our collaborative endeavours. It aligned perfectly with the ASEAN academic exchange strategy, showcasing our commitment to diversifying cooperative projects. During this friendly exchange that extended over two hours, we engaged in fruitful discussions covering a range of topics, including Joint Research Funding applications, Joint Research Seminars, 2+2 academic programs, Study Abroad Training and mobility programme. This visit not only deepens our cooperation but also strengthens the bilateral relationship between China and Malaysia, setting the stage for exciting future initiatives.
