President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkiye announced ambitions to double trade with Malaysia to US$10 billion annually, highlighting a strategic focus on technological cooperation and joint production. Speaking at a public lecture at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre, Erdogan outlined the progress made in reaching a trade volume of over US$5 billion in 2024 and expressed plans to expand into sectors including semiconductors, automotive, aircraft technologies, and civil simulators.
