Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim revealed that he had a health checkup at the National Heart Institute (IJN) this morning.
He said he was given the all-clear.
“After the check-up and the doctor confirming my health was in good condition, I continued with my duties together with my staff,” he said in a brief Facebook post today.
An accompanying photo showed Anwar (above, left), together with his political secretary Shamsul Iskandar Md Akin, his senior economics and finance adviser Nurul Izzah, and another staff member.
Anwar did not state whether the check-up was routine or was prompted by a health incident.
Earlier, Human Resources Minister V Sivakumar said he was informed the prime minister was not feeling well and, hence, went for a check-up.
He said this when explaining why Anwar did not attend Thaipusam celebrations at Batu Caves this morning.
Anwar - who will be turning 76 in August - has had multiple injuries affecting his wellbeing in the past.
He had had two back surgeries and two shoulder surgeries.
However, heart-related ailments have not been publicly reported before. - Mkini
