PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam will explore potentials to improve relations and cooperation that can benefit both countries.
This will be discussed at a meeting between the Sultan of Brunei, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, who will be in Malaysia for a special visit today, and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
The sultan will be the first foreign leader to call on the newly appointed prime minister.
Anwar will also host a luncheon for Sultan Hassanal, who will be accompanied by Prince ‘Abdul Mateen Bolkiah, and his entourage.
