PM Anwar: World recognises Malaysia's role in Thai-Ambodia peace talks efforts
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim speaking at the opening the Madani Dairy Entrepreneur Carnival at Farm Fresh Perak Dairy Complex today. – Bernama photo LARUT (Aug 16): Malaysia's role as Asean Chair in facilitating reconciliation efforts between Thailand and Cambodia following recent border tensions has been recognised internationally, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. He said that although there were certain quarters that refused to acknowledge Malaysia's role, the trust placed by the countries involved was clear proof that they held Malaysia's political and economic stability in high regard. 'Thank God, in Malaysia our politics are stable and our economic development is respected. So, when disputes arise, the task of reconciliation is entrusted to us. This is a form of international recognition, even if some in Parliament may choose not to acknowledge it — and that is fine,' he said. Anwar made the remarks when opening the Madani Dairy Entrepreneur Carnival at Farm Fresh Perak Dairy Complex today. Also present were Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad, Minister of Agriculture and Food Security Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu and Minister of Education Fadhlina Sidek Earlier, US Ambassador to Malaysia Edgard D. Kagan was reported to have said that Malaysia had played an important role as ASEAN Chair in peace efforts between Thailand and Cambodia through the General Boundary Committee (GBC) meeting, following tensions along the border of the two countries. Kagan said that Malaysia's role in organising the meeting demonstrated its leadership in bringing both nations to the table. Meanwhile, Anwar said Malaysia's strong diplomatic relations with foreign countries have brought significant benefits, particularly in creating new economic opportunities in the country. 'For example, during the conflict between Cambodia and Thailand, Thai milk could not enter Cambodia, but Farm Fresh milk successfully entered the market. 'I am sharing this because our relations with Thailand and Cambodia are good. If Farm Fresh wishes to open a farm in Thailand, we will extend our full cooperation,' he said. Anwar also stressed that the government will continue to support initiatives that strengthen the nation's food security, including the dairy industry. Expressing pride in the achievements of local dairy producer Farm Fresh Bhd, he praised the company for its contribution to the dairy sector, job creation for Malaysians, and commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR). Meanwhile, Farm Fresh chief operations director Azmi Zainal said the company's 828-acre complex in Perak is home to 4,300 dairy cows producing 22,000 litres of milk daily. 'In a year, this complex produces 10 million litres of milk, making it the largest and most productive dairy farm in the country,' he said, adding that the farm has 150 local workers, most of whom are under 30 years old. Farm Fresh also buys milk from local small farmers at competitive prices. 'Through our CSR initiatives last year, we awarded scholarships to 500 STPM students and starting this year, we will also introduce a mathematics tuition programme for primary school students,' he added. – Bernama Anwar Ibrahim asean diplomatic Thailand-Cambodia conflict

Appointment As Wardens Allows Ex-servicemen To Continue Serving Society
KUALA NERUS, Aug 16 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) welcomes the proposal and initiative by relevant parties to employ ex-servicemen as part of the workforce, including as wardens at educational institutions. Army Deputy Chief Lieutenant General Datuk Tengku Muhammad Fauzi Tengku Ibrahim said that in addition to curbing disciplinary offences such as, especially in schools, such an initiative also provides second career opportunities for military personnel or veterans. "We welcome agencies that are willing to take in veterans as part of their workforce. Having served for more than 20 years, if they were to retire at say 40 or 41, there is still a job market for them in the outside world. "The experience they gained while in service, be it discipline, physical or spiritual aspects, they can share it with the public and put it to good use,' he told reporters after the closing ceremony of the Basic Rapid Deployment Force Course (APAC) Series 2/2025 at Jambatan Angkat here today. He added that the MAF is always ready to equip its personnel to be "redeployed' in the context of national and community development after retirement. Previously, Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA) chairman Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said that he would appoint former military and police personnel as full-time wardens in all Maktab Rendah Sains MARA (MRSM) boarding schools to tackle bullying and other disciplinary cases, as well as to assure a safe and peaceful learning environment for all students. Asyraf Wajdi posted on Facebook recently that the first group of full-time wardens, comprising ex-police and military personnel, would begin their duty at the Besut MRSM and Balik Pulau MRSM in Penang on Monday. In another development, Tengku Muhammad Fauzi reiterated that the MAF would never compromise with any personnel found to have committed offences that tarnished the image of the military and the country. He added that not only would no privileges be given, but military personnel involved in any wrongdoing would also be subject to two sets of laws - civil law and military law.
