History

Malaysia's foreign ministry started in 1956 - a year before the country's independence - when Malaysia's Father of Independence established its offices at the Sultan Abdul Samad Building in Kuala Lumpur. Then, it was one of only four ministries established by the late Tunku Abdul Rahman. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs started with a staff of eleven British and Australian-trained foreign service officers. It initially had missions in London, Canberra, New Delhi, Tokyo, Bangkok, and Washington, growing to fourteen missions in 1963, 21 missions in 1965 and 106 missions by 2008. In those early days, the Permanent Mission of Malaysia to the UN in New York also doubled up as the Embassy of Malaysia to the United States.

Notes

1. Malaysia does not have formal relations with Taiwan, since the establishment of relations with the People's Republic of China in 1974. Nonetheless, its trade center in Taipei serves as a de facto embassy.
2. Embassy of Malaysia to Holy See is located outside Vatican territory, in Rome.
3. The Malaysian embassy was shut down in the midst of the fall of Saigon in April 1975, thus marking the end of the Vietnam War and the start of a transition period to the formal reunification of Vietnam. More information is available on the article on Malaysia-Vietnam relations
