: China has agreed to list Malaysia as a priority recipient of the China-produced Covid-19 vaccine once it is successfully developed, said Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein.
“We also welcomed China’s agreement to encourage Chinese enterprises to establish all-round cooperation with Malaysian partners in vaccine research and development, and distribution,” he said. He said China has announced the vaccine is now being developed in the country and could be ready for use by the general public as early as November.
On the same note, Wang said China is making good progress on the development of the Covid-19 vaccines, adding that China stands ready to provide its vaccines to other countries. “In our views, vaccine should be provided to serve the health of all human race. In this sense, President Xi Jinping had announced that once the Chinese vaccines are developed and available, it will be made international public good for all countries, especially China wants to contribute its share to improve the accessibility and affordability of vaccine for developing countries.
Wang told Asean foreign ministers in a meeting via video conference in September that China would prioritise the distribution of the vaccines to Asean countries after the Republic meets its domestic needs.
