We – 15 Ambassadors of the EU and its Member States in Malaysia - recognise the actions and efforts that Malaysia is not sparing in order to contain the pandemic.

We wish to share facts and precise figures about what the EU is doing regarding the global vaccination gap, including some observations about the very important cooperation with our Malaysian partners.
