PETALING JAYA: Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has thanked his Malaysian counterpart Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and his wife, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, for sending him a "Get Well Soon" package to wish him a speedy recovery from Covid-19.
“Many thanks to @anwaribrahim and @drwanazizah for the lovely ‘Get Well Soon’ package!
“Was supposed to go to KL for our annual Leaders' Retreat, but had to postpone it due to my Covid infection. We are in the midst of finding new dates. Look forward to meeting again soon!” Wong wrote on Twitter.
Wong also shared a photo of the care package which included a variety of fruits and a Premium Seafood Crab Meat Fish Maw Soup (Real Crab Meat).
The 11th Malaysia-Singapore Leaders' Retreat, scheduled for Dec 8 to Dec 9 in Malaysia, has been postponed after Wong tested positive for Covid-19 on Tuesday.
Earlier Wednesday, Anwar, while presenting the second reading of the Supply Bill 2025 in Dewan Negara, said the signing of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) agreement, originally scheduled for Dec 9, has been postponed to January due to Wong’s Covid-19 diagnosis. – Bernama
