King grants audience to Anwar in Bahrain


KUALA LUMPUR: His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, granted an audience to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in Bahrain.

According to a post on the Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar Facebook account, the Prime Minister briefed His Majesty on the latest developments in the country and enquired about Sultan Ibrahim’s health during the meeting.

Her Majesty Raja Zarith Sofiah, Queen of Malaysia, was also present.

Anwar arrived in Bahrain yesterday for an official visit at the invitation of the Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Bahrain, Salman Hamad Al Khalifa.

On Tuesday, Istana Negara announced that Sultan Ibrahim had successfully undergone conservative treatment abroad for musculoskeletal pain and is expected to return tomorrow.

The condition was attributed to His Majesty’s military training and active lifestyle in his youth, particularly his passion for polo.

His Majesty had travelled abroad for treatment on Feb 7. 

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister said that he had the opportunity to inquire about Sultan Ibrahim’s health condition, following his treatment in Bahrain.

“May his Majesty continue to be blessed with good health to continue to guide the nation,” said Anwar in an Instagram post.
