PUTRAJAYA: Brunei's Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah is in good health and resting, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
"He is in good condition so let him rest. We will be issuing a statement later," the Prime Minister told reporters when met after closing the Asean Auditor Conference here on Wednesday (May 28).
During his speech, Anwar apologised to participants and delegates of the event for being slightly late.
"I attended the Fortune Asean-GCC Economic Forum earlier this morning and stopped by the National Heart Institute (IJN) to visit the Sultan of Brunei on my way here.
"The Sultan is recuperating and resting," he said.
The 78-year-old monarch was admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN) in Kuala Lumpur on Tuesday (May 27).
He is expected to remain there for several days on the advice of Malaysian medical experts, his office added.
