Ghana–Malaysia relations refers to bilateral foreign relations between the two countries, Ghana and Malaysia. Ghana has a high commission in Kuala Lumpur,[1] and Malaysia has a high commission in Accra.[2]

History

Both the Federation of Malaya (now Malaysia) and Ghana achieved independence in 1957 and were once part of the British Empire, but the developmental difference between the two countries indicates a difference in policies as has been viewed by several Ghanaian researchers.[3][4][5]

Economic relations

Several documents has been signed by both countries to boost economic co-operation such as the promotion and the protecting of investments.[6] Some Ghanaian construction professionals have visited Malaysia to learn more about regulations, health and safety, issuance of permits, planning practices, procurement and infrastructure development.[7][8] A Ghana-Malaysia business council also has been launched to boost the economic opportunities in Ghana.[9]
