PETALING JAYA: The Star's coverage of US President Donald Trump's visit to Malaysia has garnered the attention of the White House.

In pictures posted on the Facebook of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, the Prime Minister was seen with Trump as well as a copy of The Star newspaper on a table.

Also seen was a copy of the New Straits Times.

In the post, Anwar said he had the opportunity once again to hold a brief meeting with Trump before his departure to Tokyo, Japan.

"The meeting provided an opportunity to review the outcomes of the Malaysia–United States bilateral discussions held earlier, including strategic cooperation in the fields of trade, technology, and regional security, and to convey my deep appreciation to President Trump for his instrumental role in advancing the Kuala Lumpur Peace Accord (KL Accord) and the Gaza Peace Plan, both of which serve as beacons of hope for achieving a just and lasting peace," he said.

The post also garnered comments from Cambodian Facebook users who thanked Anwar and Malaysia for bringing about the KL Peace Accord that ceased hostilities along the Thai-Cambodian border.

A copy of The Star newspaper on Monday (Oct 27) was also featured on the X (formerly Twitter) account of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.
