VLADIVOSTOK, Aug 13 (Bernama-TASS) -- Bilateral trade between Russia and Malaysia grew by 13 per cent in 2025 to over US$3.6 billion, Russian News Agency TASS reported quoting Science and Higher Education Minister Valery Falkov.
"Figures from the first few months of this year indicate a need to step up joint efforts, which is why it is important not only to restore the momentum previously achieved but also to ensure sustainable growth in mutual trade," he said at the meeting of the joint Russian-Malaysian commission.
Interest among businesses in both countries in expanding trade ties is growing, Falkov added.
The fifth meeting of the joint Russian-Malaysian commission on economic, scientific-technical, and cultural cooperation co-chaired by Valery Falkov and Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir, is taking place on the campus of the Far Eastern Federal University on Thursday.
The meeting focused on trade and investment cooperation, agriculture, energy, tourism, and cultural exchanges, as well as the development of ties in areas of science and education.
