The Ministry of Health , in a statement, said the participation involves collaboration with several relevant government agencies, including the Attorney General’s Chambers. “To ensure Malaysia’s input and position are aligned collectively and strategically, the national delegation, comprising technical and legal experts, will gather at a coordination centre in Malaysia to follow and actively participate in the negotiation sessions to safeguard national interests and public well-being,” the statement said. According to MOH, the decision to participate in the negotiations online was made after taking into account the conflict in West Asia as well as current critical logistical constraints. MOH said Malaysia recognises the importance of the Pathogen Access and Benefit-Sharing System negotiations in strengthening global pandemic preparedness. “Previously, Malaysia has always ensured representation at such negotiations and has never failed to send a physical delegation,” the ministry said.
