Malaysia and Palestine will continue to strengthen cooperation in the field of higher education, said Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir.
He said the matter was discussed during a courtesy call from Palestinian Ambassador to Malaysia Jehad Alqedra.
In a Facebook post today, Zambry said the discussion also focused on strengthening support for Palestinian students, as well as exploring new opportunities for collaboration between universities in both countries.
“Malaysia has always believed that education is a bridge of hope, peace and the future,” he said.
“In that spirit, we will continue to play a role in helping the Palestinian people rebuild the strength of the nation through knowledge and education,” he added.
