JAKARTA, July 29 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim arrived in Jakarta yesterday to attend the 13th Annual Consultation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto, set to take place today.

The special aircraft carrying the Prime Minister landed at Halim Perdanakusuma Airport in East Jakarta at 7.40pm local time. He was received by Indonesian Foreign Minister Sugiono, Home Minister Tito Karnavian, and Malaysian Ambassador to Indonesia Datuk Syed Mohamad Hasrin Tengku Hussin.

The high-level meeting between the two leaders is scheduled for this morning at Istana Merdeka in Central Jakarta.

The previous Annual Consultation between Malaysia and Indonesia was held in Kuching, Sarawak, on November 22, 2017.

This session will explore new areas of cooperation and provide a platform for both leaders to exchange views on regional and international matters of mutual interest.

In a media briefing earlier, Ambassador Syed Mohamad Hasrin said the Annual Consultations represent the highest bilateral mechanism between Malaysia and Indonesia, aimed at strengthening strategic and comprehensive cooperation.

During the visit, Anwar is also scheduled to visit the ASEAN Secretariat in Jakarta at the invitation of ASEAN Secretary-General Dr Kao Kim Hourn, where he will deliver a policy speech in the context of Malaysia’s ASEAN Chairmanship in 2025. — Bernama
