He added that Southeast Asia's third biggest economy will continue to believe in "free, fair and open" trade and investment.He also called on the world to observe fundamental rules governing global trade and exchanges without impediments of protectionism and unilateralism.It is of utmost importance that governments continue to remain true to fundamental philosophies and rules that govern international trade, which in turn provide certainty and predictability for businesses, he said.Shaukat Aziz, former Prime Minister of Pakistan, said that no country can attain its "true economic potential" by looking inward.He said the pandemic should serve as a wake-up call to reach out to others and not to use this event as an excuse to enforce protectionist and inward-looking policies.
