AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Rail Skills Pipeline: 66 Malaysian trainees graduated in Liuzhou under the ECRL Industrial Skills Training Programme (PLKI-ECRL), with Transport Minister Anthony Loke saying they’ll be absorbed into the East Coast Rail Link workforce—part of a push to build local O&M capability as 259 Malaysians train for the project’s next phase. China-Russia Pivot: Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin in Beijing hailed “the highest level” ties, signing 40+ deals and boosting energy cooperation while calling for a Middle East ceasefire to protect supply chains. India Markets & Fuel: Indian government bonds rebounded on foreign-bank buying as oil cooled; meanwhile OMCs raised petrol and diesel again, adding to inflation pressure. India-Italy Upgrade: Modi and Meloni elevated relations to a “Special Strategic Partnership,” targeting deeper trade, defence manufacturing, tech and clean energy. Japan Crypto Reset: Japan moved to regulate foreign trust-type stablecoins as payment instruments from June 1, signaling a major shift in its crypto stance.
