The Ethiopian general-consulate in Kuala Lumpur was established in 2003, with the main purpose of the consulate being to enhance trade and economic activities between the two countries and for closer person-to-person contact.

Economic relations

Malaysia is one of the major trade partners of Ethiopia. In 2005, Ethiopia's Ministry of Mines and Petronas, a Malaysian oil firm, signed a four-year exploration and production agreement enabling the latter to explore and produce petroleum in Ethiopia. In 2009, a Malaysian company set up a mushroom farming establishment with an investment of Br285 million. The area covers a 60 hectare mushroom farm near Lake Shala where the main production facility lies. In 2013, a Malaysian edible oil producer built a large food oil refinery in Ethiopia. Both countries are also working on air transport and Malaysia Airlines has established a codeshare agreement with Ethiopian Airlines.
