KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 7 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today conveyed his deepest condolences to all those affected by the devastating earthquake that struck China’s Xizang Autonomous Region.
In a heartfelt statement shared on Facebook, the Prime Minister also expressed Malaysia’s solidarity with the government and people of China following the tragic disaster.
“Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the communities grappling with loss and destruction. May they find the strength, courage, and support needed to endure and recover during this difficult time,” Anwar said.
