BRUNEI’S Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah (picture) is “feeling a bit tired” and is currently resting at the National Heart Institution (IJN), Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim confirms. 

This follows a recent rumour circulating social media platforms saying that he is hospitalised in Kuala Lumpur. 

The Sultan arrived in Kuala Lumpur on May 25, leading Brunei’s delegation to the 46th ASEAN Summit. 

A source told Reuters that he was hospitalised between the Asean-GCC and Asean-GCC-China summit.

His presence alongside the delegation underscores the country’s strong commitment to regional cooperation, where at the previous Summit held in October last year, Sultan Hassanal highlighted pressing matters including climate change issues. 

Malaysia, in chairing ASEAN for the fifth time, adopts the theme of ‘Inclusivity and Sustainability’ in reflecting its commitment to foster a united, resilient and forward-looking ASEAN community.

The Summit, held on May 26 and 27 at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre also featured the 2nd ASEAN-Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Summit and the inaugural ASEAN-GCC-China Summit.
