Duda will meet with business leaders, attend a forum in Singapore co-organized by the Polish Investment and Trade Agency (PAIH), and showcase Polish military equipment in Port Dickson, Malaysia. Talks are also ongoing about opening Malaysia’s market to Polish agricultural products.
The visit underscores Poland’s growing interest in Southeast Asia, a region Kolarski described as increasingly important both economically and politically. Duda will also address security concerns tied to Russia’s war in Ukraine, reaffirming Poland’s stance on ending the conflict by stopping Russian aggression.
Kolarski emphasized that the visit is not about signing deals but fostering an environment for stronger partnerships and future investments.
