KUALA LUMPUR: Outgoing Chinese ambassador Dr Huang Huikang – perhaps the most active and outspoken diplomat in Malaysia – has earned the respect of the local Chinese community after four years here. Dr Huang, who came to Malaysia in January 2014, will leave on Oct 18 to assume his duties as an elected member of the International Law Commission at the United Nations. You have indeed done a meaningful job,” he told Dr Huang. Amid negative international news coverage on MH370, Dr Huang did Kuala Lumpur a favour. Apart from carrying out his official duties, Dr Huang is known for his outreach activities.
