KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is well positioned to play a key role in helping to save and rebuild Sudan, says Sudan’s ambassador to Malaysia Hassan Abdel Salam Omer.
He described Malaysia as a leading country in the Islamic Ummah and added that
Khartoum places great trust in Kuala Lumpur due to its neutrality and integrity in international affairs.
“Malaysia has no ulterior motives or any agenda. So it is a very good candidate to play an excellent role in Sudan,” he added.
He said Malaysia has long been viewed as a strategic partner and that this is particularly important for post-conflict reconstruction once peace and stability are restored.
“We always look for Malaysia as a strategic partner for the rebuilding of the country,” he said.
He said this would be immediate when things return to normal.
The ambassador expressed gratitude for the growing solidarity shown by Malaysians in recent days.
“I am really thrilled by the wide support we get from the Malaysian public and grassroots organisations,” he said.
Hassan’s remarks come as Sudan faces one of its worst humanitarian crises.
International calls are mounting for greater regional and Muslim world involvement to end the conflict.
There are also calls to support the Sudanese people.
