The Press Section handles relations between the Embassy and the media in Malaysia.

The Embassy Information Officer responds to questions from the press and provides information on U.S. foreign policy and current issues to the media.  The Press Section arranges media events including press conferences, media coverage of key events in Malaysia involving the United States Government, and requested interviews with the Ambassador, other Embassy personnel, and visiting U.S. Government officials.

The Press Office also works with the Malaysia press corps to facilitate travel to the U.S. by Malaysian media for training and reporting purposes.  Occasionally, the Press Section will sponsor journalism training sessions and arrange for speaking tours by media experts and other professionals with schools of communication in Malaysia.
