Kuala Lumpur (VNA) – Malaysia and Australia on March 4 formalised four Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) in Melbourne on March 4 during Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s official visit to Australia and attendance at the ASEAN - Australia Special Summit.

Two of the MoUs are new, namely the Practical Arrangements on cooperation in science and technology and their applications for the implementation of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test Ban Treaty (CTBT); and Cyber Security and Critical Technology.

The two others are renewable MoUs, namely cooperation in the field of sports and higher education.
