The Petronas Twin Towers, one of Malaysia’s most prominent tourist attractions, lit up with the UAE flag to mark the occasion. 

The visit aims to further strengthen bilateral ties and cooperation between the UAE and Malaysia across key sectors, including reciprocal trade and energy. 

The two nations share close ties, with the UAE being Malaysia's leading Middle East trade partner.
