论马来西亚与日本经济关系的新发展

New Development of the Economic Relations between Malaysia and Japan

马来西亚独立后,日本就一直是马来西亚重要的经济伙伴。战后很长一段时间,马来西亚对日本的开放程度和日本在马来西亚经济的影响力,是东盟乃至亚洲地区其他国家所不及的。日本和马来西亚经济关系的深化,既为马来西亚经济增长提供强大的动力,也增加了马来西亚对日本的依赖。21世纪初,马来西亚和日本的经济关系将以贸易和投资为主体,全力拓展其他经济领域的全方面合作,发展紧密的经济伙伴关系。

Japan has been an important economic partner with Malaysia since the latter＇s independence. Compared with other ASEAN or Asian countries, Malaysia has maximized its openness to Japan, and therefore, Japan exerted its great influence on Malaysia. At the beginning of the 21st century, the closer economic relations between Malaysia and Japan will continue to be deepened, based on the promotion of trade, FDI and other areas of cooperation.
