Pakistan discusses rice, meat exports with Malaysia amid push for export-led growth

Pakistan discussed expanding exports of rice, meat and other agricultural products with Malaysia on Friday during a meeting between Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar and Malaysian Premier Anwar Ibrahim, according to an official statement.
Dar arrived in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday to attend the ASEAN Regional Forum, where he also interacted with other world leaders.
His three-day visit aims to deepen Pakistan’s engagement with ASEAN states and advance bilateral cooperation with key regional partners.
“Deputy Prime Minister Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar called on Malaysian Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim,” the foreign office said in a statement. “[The] DPM conveyed the good wishes of the Prime Minister of Pakistan for the leadership and people of Malaysia and reiterated Pakistan’s desire to further expand mutually beneficial bilateral cooperation in all spheres.”
“Expanding cooperation in the halal sector, including potential for export of meat and agricultural products from Pakistan, including rice was also discussed at the occasion,” the statement added.
Pakistan has been actively working to diversify its export destinations in recent years, seeking to promote agricultural goods, halal-certified meat, textiles and services as part of its broader strategy for export-led economic growth.
The Malaysian leader reaffirmed his country’s commitment to strengthening longstanding ties with Pakistan.
He said he looked forward to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s forthcoming visit to Malaysia.
During his visit, Dar also addressed the ASEAN Regional Forum, where he called for global peace, justice and urgent climate action in the face of escalating environmental and geopolitical challenges.
