00:00So, ladies and gentlemen, the year 2025 is a significant and exciting year for Malaysia.
00:08We will not only grace the world stage at Expo 2025, but will also assume the esteemed
00:15role of the ASEAN Chair.
00:17I believe our message for greater unity and prosperity as an ASEAN family can also be
00:24amplified through Malaysia's participation at Expo 2025.
00:30There are indeed core similarities between these two platforms, as both call for collaboration,
00:37innovation and a shared vision for a better future.
00:41They underscore the power of unity, highlighting that our diverse perspectives and unique strengths
00:48are not obstacles, but rather catalysts to learn, grow and create something truly extraordinary.
00:57Thus, let us embrace a spirit of collaboration and shared purpose, striving to cultivate
01:05a world where diversity is not only celebrated, but serves as a cornerstone of a thriving
01:11global community where every voice is valued and heard.
01:17So ladies and gentlemen, today we will unveil the first glimpse of our pavilion, an architectural
01:24marvel inspired by the traditional Malaysian weaving process.
01:29I invite you to immerse yourself into our storytelling, sharing Malaysia's transformative
01:35journey, including from the aspects of sustainable agriculture, energy, transition revolution,
01:43green tourism, smart, healthy living and environmental management.
01:50More than showcasing achievements, we hope our Malaysian pavilion can inspire visitors
01:54at Expo 2025.
01:58For our Malaysian visitors specifically, it is our intention that the message of unity
02:03at our pavilion will continue to resonate with us even after we return home.
02:11For even as we celebrate our diversity, we must remember that unity is our greatest strength.
02:19Just as different threads can be woven together to create a beautiful tapestry, so too can
02:25different people come together to build a harmonious society.
