KUALA LUMPUR – Bilateral relations and cooperation between Malaysia and Singapore were among the matters discussed at the meeting between Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and his Singapore counterpart Lee Hsien Loong, in Hainan, China, this morning.

This was informed by Anwar through a post on Facebook here today.

“May the close relationship between the two countries become stronger. Insya-Allah,” he said.

According to Lee’s spokesman, the two leaders reaffirmed the close and unique bilateral ties between Singapore and Malaysia and reviewed the progress made in bilateral cooperation since Anwar’s official visit to Singapore in January.

The four-eyed meeting with Lee was held before Anwar attended the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2023 today, which was part of the programme in the prime minister’s four-day official visit to China.

The special aircraft carrying Anwar landed at Boao International Airport at 5.29pm yesterday.

The prime minister is accompanied by Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook and Local Government Development Minister Nga Kor Ming. – Bernama, March 30, 2023
