Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim arrived in Bangkok this morning (Thursday) for a two-day visit, during which he will discuss with Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha ways to strengthen Thai-Malaysian cooperation, including Malaysia’s role in facilitating the peace dialogue in southern Thailand.

 

Anwar, who is making his first visit to Bangkok since becoming prime minister in November, is scheduled to meet with Prime Minister Prayut at the Government House this evening.

 

The Malaysian Foreign Ministry said in a statement yesterday that Anwar’s meeting with Prayut will provide an opportunity for the two leaders to discuss the way forward in strengthening multifaceted cooperation, focusing on economic cooperation, border area development and key connectivity projects across the border.

Probably cannot as Malaysia protects the rebels with an eye of creating a Muslim buffer. Or even having the southern states secede. 

Multifaceted cooperation "laughing emoji" multifaced more like ???? 

Got to hand it to the Malay's though. They have kept the Chinese out in mass.  I am kinda of interested in seeing where Thailand lands in the next few years.
