KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 11 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has apologised for being unable to attend today’s Special Sitting of the Dewan Rakyat to debate the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) Report on Tabung Haji.
His senior press secretary, Tunku Nashrul Abaidah, said in a statement that the Prime Minister, who is currently undergoing treatment, prayed for the proceedings to go smoothly.
“He will closely follow the debate to ensure that the trust placed in this institution of Muslims continues to be safeguarded,” he said.
Tunku Nashrul said the Prime Minister’s health was improving and that he would continue to undergo physiotherapy under the supervision of a team of medical specialists.
