KUALA LUMPUR, May 22 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today held a telephone conversation with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay.
In a Facebook post, Anwar said he once again congratulated Vijay on the significant responsibility he was undertaking in serving the people of Tamil Nadu.
“I also informed him that I will be going to India this September to attend the BRICS Summit, as well as to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and if time permits, I may make a short visit to Tamil Nadu,” he said.
Anwar also prayed that Vijay would continue to be granted strength and wisdom to lead and administer effectively for the well-being of the people and the future of Tamil Nadu.
