SEOUL: South Korea and Malaysia signed an agreement on Monday to cooperate in supplying critical minerals from Malaysia 's reserves and boost cooperation in the defence industry as the Southeast Asian country looks to upgrade its air force jets.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim also shared their commitment at a summit to conclude a free trade agreement by next year, which would include additional areas such as services, investment, and green energy, Yoon's office said.

The countries also agreed to establish an institutional foundation to cooperate on climate change, including a previously signed memorandum of understanding on a carbon capture and storage project, which is scheduled to launch in 2029.
