"Does Malaysia Look Like A Failed State To You?"

Prime Minister Najib Razak is in Washington DC with a high-ranking delegation which includes the Foreign Minister, Minister of International Trade, as well as Chief Secretary to the Government as well as the National Security Council Director-General. Today we ask what impact the goodwill between President Trump and Najib had on setting up this meeting; the PM's conversation with the Malaysian community in Washington; the strengthening bilateral ties; and the country's need to shape its message to a White House that is seen to be transactional in character.
