"Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters have held demonstrations opposing United States President Donald Trump's visit to Malaysia for the ASEAN summit. Protesters gathered in Kuala Lumpur's Independence Square and the Ampang Park area of the city in separate demonstrations on Sunday morning and evening to oppose Trump's support for Israel's war on Gaza. Trump was in Kuala Lumpur to attend the 47th ASEAN summit, where he oversaw the signing of a ceasefire deal between Cambodia and Thailand and announced a number of trade deals."
"Asma Hanim Mahoud said she had travelled 300km (185 miles) from the state of Kelantan in northeast Malaysia to attend the protest and another demonstration on Friday in front of the US embassy. People who have a conscience know that Trump is a genocide enabler. Without him, Israel cannot kill all the children and people in Gaza, she told Al Jazeera. It's not rocket science."

Trump attended the 47th ASEAN summit, oversaw a ceasefire deal signing between Cambodia and Thailand, and announced trade deals. Protesters wore keffiyehs and chanted "Free, Free Palestine." Asma Hanim Mahoud traveled 300 km from Kelantan to join protests including one at the US embassy. Police had expected 1,000–1,500 protesters; turnout was lower but drew a diverse cross-section of society. Choo Chon Kai described the rally as solidarity against US imperialism and for Palestine.
