Our elections are fiercely contested, just as they are in America, with different parties winning different states at different times. My nation, too, has been forced to address the threat of Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), known as Daesh in my part of the world. I am proud to say that the Royal Malaysian Police has thwarted at least 13 major terrorist attacks since 2012. As any visitor to Malaysia will know, U.S. firms, banks, brands, food and clothes are found everywhere in our country. In my discussions with President Trump and others, I hope to strengthen our ties even further.
