00:00Former Bangi MP Ong Kian Ming proposed five candidates as potential replacements for Malaysia's
00:07ambassador to the US.
00:09Ong said five possible successors were PKR Vice President Nurul Iza Anwar, Trade Minister
00:14Tengku Zafrul Aziz, former CIMB Chairman Nazir Razak, ex-MP Yusmati Yusuf, and Institute
00:21of Strategic and International Studies Malaysia Chairman Faiz Abdullah.
00:26Ong criticized current envoy Nazir Aziz for failing to arrange a phone call between Prime
00:30Minister Anwar Ibrahim and US President Donald Trump, saying such calls were diplomatically
00:35significant.
00:36He said leaders from neighboring countries, including Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand,
00:42and Singapore, had spoken with Trump before his inauguration.
00:46Ong said Nazir's replacement should have direct access to Anwar, be well-connected
00:50with key Malaysian ministers, and be able to engage with US policymakers.
00:55He said Faiz Abdullah was already advising Anwar on foreign policy, Nurul Iza was a trusted
01:00aide, Tengku Zafrul was a reliable minister, Nazir Razak was a corporate leader, and Yusmati
01:06Yusuf had long been in Anwar's inner circle.
01:09Until Nazir is replaced, Ong suggested that Malaysia send a senior minister to the US
01:14to personally invite Trump to the ASEAN summit and hold high-level meetings with US officials.
