The South China Morning Post has signed three memorandums of understanding (MOUs) in Kuala Lumpur aimed at deepening regional cooperation and serving as a bridge between Hong Kong, Malaysia and the wider Asean region.

SCMP publisher Tammy Tam on Tuesday signed the MOUs with the Southeast Asian Futures Initiative Centre (SEAFIC), a leading think tank, Star Media Group Berhad, publisher of Malaysia’s leading English-language daily, The Star, and the Malaysian Chamber of Commerce (Hong Kong & Macau) Limited (MayCham).

The SCMP is a Hong Kong-based English-language newspaper owned by Alibaba Group Holding.
