Connecting routes, improving ties


Cordial: Lee and Najib meet again tomorrow for their sixth annual consultations.

SLIGHTLY more than a year ago, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong boarded a Malaysia Airlines flight to KL International Airport for his annual consultation with Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in Putrajaya – an act seen by Malaysia as Lee’s support to a country still in shock over the MH370 incident.

Lee and Najib have always gotten along well. When Singapore’s first prime minister Lee Kuan Yew passed away in March, Najib was there to pay his last respects to Hsien Loong’s father.
