Kepimpinan belia Malaysia turut meninjau pencapaian mengagumkan China dalam sistem pengangkutan autonomi, khususnya kejayaan Beijing mencapai penanda aras “0% kemalangan jalan raya”, hasil daripada pengurusan keselamatan jalan berasaskan AI yang canggih serta tadbir urus mobiliti bandar yang tegas.
Delegasi Malaysia menekankan potensi untuk Kementerian Pengangkutan (MOT) serta institusi penyelidikan tempatan menjalankan kajian terhadap sistem keselamatan bersepadu China dan meneroka kerjasama penyelidikan dan pembangunan (R&D) yang boleh mengubah rangka kerja keselamatan jalan raya Malaysia ke arah mencapai matlamat Vision Zero Accident.
Selain aspek teknologi, lawatan ini turut menumpukan kepada diplomasi budaya dan pembelajaran bersama, di mana wakil belia kedua-dua negara terlibat dalam dialog mengenai pertukaran budaya, ekosistem inovasi dan kepimpinan sosial. Perbincangan tersebut menekankan kepentingan menghormati dan memahami warisan masing-masing sambil membentuk hala tuju moden untuk penglibatan belia.
Majlis Belia Malaysia turut menekankan keperluan mewujudkan program kerjasama dua hala belia yang merangkumi:
- Inisiatif pertukaran TVET dan vokasional yang menumpukan kepada pembangunan kemahiran masa depan;
- Hab pembelajaran AI dan automasi bagi mempercepat penyesuaian industri dalam kalangan usahawan muda;
- Perkongsian inkubator perniagaan belia bagi memupuk keusahawanan rentas sempadan dan inovasi; serta
- Program penghayatan budaya bagi memperdalam kefahaman dan apresiasi terhadap warisan sosial China dan Malaysia.
Kemajuan China dalam bandar pintar berasaskan AI, inovasi tenaga boleh baharu dan keusahawanan ekonomi digital menawarkan peluang pembelajaran yang luas kepada belia Malaysia. Lawatan ini turut mengukuhkan visi bersama kedua-dua negara untuk membina generasi muda yang berdaya tahan, maju secara teknologi dan berdaya saing di peringkat global. Misi ini mencerminkan komitmen MBM dalam mempromosikan diplomasi yang dipacu belia, memupuk kepimpinan melalui pendedahan antarabangsa serta memperkukuh kedudukan Malaysia dalam kerjasama belia antarabangsa. Ketika Malaysia dan China meraikan dekad persahabatan, kerjasama ini membuka lembaran baharu ke arah kemakmuran bersama dan pertumbuhan saling melengkapi — merapatkan budaya melalui inovasi, saling menghormati dan perpaduan matlamat.

MBM Strengthens Youth Diplomacy and Innovation Collaboration with China
Beijing China November 2025 – The Malaysian Youth Council (Majlis Belia Malaysia, MBM) embarked on an official working visit to China under the Malaysia–China Youth Friendship Program, aimed at strengthening bilateral relations in youth diplomacy, culture, and technology. This visit marks a significant step toward enhancing collaboration in the areas of innovation, sustainable development, and youth empowerment.
During the exchange, both nations shared insights into emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), automation, and autonomous vehicle production — key components of China’s future mobility landscape. Malaysia’s youth leaders observed China’s impressive achievements in autonomous transportation systems, notably Beijing’s remarkable 0% road accident KPI, a milestone attributed to advanced AI-based road safety management and strict urban mobility governance.
The Malaysian delegation emphasized the potential for Malaysia’s Ministry of Transport (MOT) and local research institutions to study China’s integrated safety systems and explore R&D partnerships that could transform Malaysia’s road safety framework toward achieving Vision Zero Accident goals.
Beyond technology, the visit also focused on cultural diplomacy and mutual learning, where youth representatives from both countries engaged in dialogues on cultural exchange, innovation ecosystems, and social leadership. The discussions underscored the value of respecting and understanding each other’s heritage while co-creating modern pathways for youth engagement.
The Malaysian Youth Council highlighted the need to establish two-way youth collaboration programs, including:
- TVET and vocational exchange initiatives focusing on future skills development;
- AI and automation learning hubs to accelerate industrial adaptation among young entrepreneurs;
- Youth business incubator partnerships, fostering cross-border entrepreneurship and innovation; and
- Cultural immersion programs to deepen understanding and appreciation of China’s and Malaysia’s social fabric.
China’s advancements in AI-driven smart cities, renewable energy innovation, and digital economy entrepreneurship offer a wealth of learning opportunities for Malaysian youth. The visit reaffirmed both countries’ shared vision of building a resilient, technologically advanced, and globally competitive young generation.
This mission reflects MBM’s commitment to promoting youth-led diplomacy, nurturing leadership through exposure, and strengthening Malaysia’s position in international youth cooperation. As Malaysia and China celebrate decades of friendship, this collaboration opens a new chapter of shared prosperity and mutual growth — bridging cultures through innovation, respect, and unity of purpose.
