Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says,
00:04
Malaysia is leading efforts to establish an ASEAN AI safety network,
00:09
a regional initiative aimed at strengthening AI governance and building technical capacity.
00:14
Speaking at the BRICS Leaders Summit in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday,
00:17
Anwar, who also chairs ASEAN, welcomed BRICS' efforts in promoting responsible AI development.
00:23
The Prime Minister, who was officially received by Brazilian President Lula da Silva,
00:27
was accompanied by Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Aziz
00:32
and Transport Minister Anthony Luke.
00:35
Anwar described the summit as timely, noting that the global order is under immense pressure,
00:40
with institutions struggling to adapt to emerging challenges.
00:43
He reaffirmed Malaysia's strong support for multilateralism,
00:46
calling it essential for peace, shared prosperity and the preservation of sovereignty.
00:51
Anwar also stressed that multilateralism must produce real results,
00:54
especially in a world where markets are fragmenting faster than global rules can evolve.
00:59
He added that ASEAN is not remaining passive, highlighting that economic fragmentation is
01:03
intensifying, with new tariffs, trade decoupling and shifting alliances disrupting previously stable
01:08
trade flows.
01:09
Malaysia, he said, is advancing a forward-looking strategy focused on diversification,
01:13
resilience and regional empowerment, rather than dependence on external influence.
01:18
Anwar also welcomed BRICS' commitment to inclusive, rules-based trade,
01:21
a vision that aligns closely with Malaysia's 2025 ASEAN chairmanship theme,
01:26
inclusivity and sustainability.
