Malaysia’s Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is set to make a two-day official visit to the Maldives this coming Monday at the invitation of President Dr. Muizzu.
This will be Anwar’s first visit to the Maldives since he took office in November 2022, and the first visit by a Malaysian prime minister in nine years.
According to the President’s Office, the visit will include official talks between the two countries and the signing of memoranda of understanding in key areas to further strengthen bilateral ties. Vice President Hussain Mohamed Latheef, People’s Majlis Speaker Abdul Raheem Abdulla and Foreign Minister Irthisham Adam are also expected to pay courtesy calls on Prime Minister Anwar.
Anwar will travel to the Maldives after attending the BRICS summit in India. The visit comes in response to the invitation extended during President Dr. Muizzu’s official visit to Malaysia in April this year. Diplomatic relations between the Maldives and Malaysia were established in 1968.
