Saudi-Malaysian business ties expand across construction, energy and halal sectors

Malaysia and Saudi Arabia are strengthening their economic partnership across construction, infrastructure, facilities management, energy and the halal economy, as Saudi Vision 2030 creates new opportunities for Malaysian companies in the Kingdom. Marking Malaysia’s National Day, Tengku Datuk Mohd Dzaraif Raja Abdul Kadir, Consul General of Malaysia in Jeddah, highlighted the longstanding relationship between the two countries and the strong people-to-people ties underpinning it. “Malaysia and Saudi Arabia share a longstanding friendship built on mutual respect, trust, shared values and strong people-to-people connections. As we celebrate Malaysia’s National Day, we deeply appreciate the warmth and hospitality extended to Malaysians in the Kingdom, and the enduring bonds between our two peoples, particularly through Hajj and Umrah,” he said.
