Thailand and Malaysia said they have resolved a seafood trade dispute and signed memoranda of understanding expected to take effect this week, clearing the way to restore bilateral fishery trade after several weeks of disruption. Thailand’s PM Anutin and Malaysia’s PM Anwar said their agriculture ministries reached a market-access agreement for fishery products, though neither specified when trade would fully normalize.
