Malaysia–Syria relations are foreign relations between Malaysia and Syria. ==History== The Federation of Malaya〔Malaysia did not come into existence until 1963.〕 and Syria established diplomatic relations in 1958. Syria established her embassy at Kuala Lumpur in 2001, while Malaysia established her embassy at Damascus in 2002. President Bashar al-Assad visited Malaysia in 2003, with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong visiting Syria in the same year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Official Website of Embassy of Malaysia, Damascus ) 〕〔 〕〔〔 In 2005, Syria's relations with the west weakened after it suffered a series of economic and political sanctions, such as the US recalling her ambassador. This saw Syria respond with an increased focus on developing ties both with their existing allies Iran and Russia, and with eastern nations, especially China, India and Malaysia. As a fellow nation where most of the population is Muslim, Malaysia has been a particular beneficiary of these efforts. Some Syrian elites have begun sending their children to learn English in Malaysia, rather than traditional destinations in the west.〔〔 〕 While relations between Syria and the West partially improved from about 2006, and especially after the Bush administration was succeeded by President Obama's, Syria has continued to further develop ties with Malaysia. Efforts to increase trade between the two countries included a 2007 visit to Syria by Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi, and the signing of several agreements in 2009 relating to air travel and the SME sector. The ''Syrian-Malaysian Business Council'' was established in February 2011 to help further develop trade between the two countries.〔〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Malaysia–Syria relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
