Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is expected to visit Pakistan in the first week of October, marking his first official trip to the country, diplomatic sources revealed on Thursday.
Anwar Ibrahim will be accompanied by a high-level delegation during the visit. This will be the first visit by a Malaysian prime minister to Pakistan in five years, with the last visit by former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad in March 2019, during the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government.
Diplomatic sources stated that several agreements and memorandums of understanding (MoUs) are expected to be signed between the two countries during the visit. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim will hold meetings with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and other top Pakistani leaders.
The discussions will focus on enhancing bilateral trade and investment. The two sides are also expected to address the Palestinian issue, as both Malaysia and Pakistan are strong advocates of the two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
The visit underscores the growing ties between Pakistan and Malaysia, particularly in areas of economic cooperation and shared diplomatic priorities.
