Malaysia has played an active role at the United Nations since becoming a Member State in September 1957. Malaysia remains committed to multilateralism and views the United Nations as the most constructive intergovernmental platform to advance our strong support and commitment towards furthering the aims and purposes of the Organisation.

Malaysia fully and consistently subscribes to the centrality of the United Nations, which has allowed the evolution of rules-based interaction among Member States, thus creating a stable international order. On this, Malaysia wishes to see a United Nations that is accountable and efficient in implementing the mandates entrusted to it by Member States. Malaysia believes that accountability and efficiency are two sides of the same coin, and that we, as Member States, are responsible for the Organisation’s activities.
