Malaysia confined its involvement in Thailand-Cambodia peace discussions to organizational support rather than dictating settlement terms, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim told parliament. The leader explained that his government facilitated meetings between the two nations without imposing requirements or forcing outcomes during the reconciliation process.
Anwar recalled arranging a summit where he instructed both Southeast Asian heads of government to determine their own negotiation framework while Malaysia provided neutral coordination. The neighboring countries established all discussion parameters and reached their settlement independently, he emphasized when responding to questions about external criticism of Kuala Lumpur's mediation efforts during the legislative session.
