Indonesia’s President Joko Widodo is currently on a two-day work visit to Malaysia, and in a joint press conference with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, pledged their commitment to further strengthen bilateral ties between both countries.

We then heard from listeners on whether Indonesia is pulling ahead of Malaysia, and if we are falling behind in ASEAN.
