Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is undergoing medical tests and procedures. His press secretary, Tunku Nashrul Abaidah, announced on Monday that a team of medical experts is overseeing his examinations and procedures, and that he is expected to remain under observation for two days.

Anwar, who turned 79 on Monday, has a history of recurrent shoulder and back problems. He was hospitalised in 2018 for shoulder and back pain and has previously cancelled trips due to back pain. In January, he received a clean bill of health after a routine medical examination.

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has wished Anwar a speedy recovery, saying that the people of Pakistan join him in praying for his continued good health and well-being.
