KUALA LUMPUR, April 29 — Malaysia could fall foul of Western-backed sanctions on Russia after a Malaysian envoy to Moscow expressed appreciation in Russia for its interest in its semiconductor industry., Malaysian envoy Bala Chandran Tharman had raised eyebrows among foreign policy observers for his comments and exuberance that Malaysia would consider “any request” from Moscow for the sale of semiconductors.
Tunku Mohar Tunku Mokhtar, a Malaysian political expert, also said the move would be putting Malaysia at risk when other countries were banning trade with Russia for their attack on Ukraine. It is considered one of the world’s largest semiconductor exporters with an annual volume of US$8.7 billion in sales.
Geostrategic expert Azmi Hassan said that although Chandran was doing his job being diplomatic to the Kremlin, it was not the right time to be conducting new business with Russia.
