Throughout the summit, these exceptional youth leaders engaged in lively discussions, exchanged innovative ideas, and collaborated with their international peers. Their collective efforts not only addressed pressing global challenges but also exemplified Malaysia’s dedication to fostering a culture of positive change and youth empowerment.

The Global Youth Summit provided a unique platform for the youth to connect and deepen their understanding of global issues, and contribute to a more sustainable world. By actively participating in discussions that revolved around the theme of harmony, they demonstrated Malaysia’s commitment to innovative problem-solving and its determination to create a better future for all.

As the summit concluded, Afiq Danial Bin Mohd Sukri, Jaya Sri Seegar, and Ong Yue Lin represented Malaysia with distinction, reaffirming the potential and strength of Malaysia’s youth. Their participation on the global stage not only inspired hope but also showcased Malaysia’s dedication to a harmonious and sustainable future.
