Anwar-Pak Lah meeting is talk of the town

KUALA LUMPUR, March 10 – Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has asked the public not to read too much into a lunch meeting he had today with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Badawi.

“Too many assumptions and interpretaions have been made about my presence and that of the prime minister in Hulu Langat today,” the de facto PKR leader wrote in his blog today.

Anwar and Abdullah were both guests at a special lunch in conjunction with Prophet Muhammad’s birthday in Hulu Langat.

The event was held at the Madrasah Nurul Iman in Hulu Langat and was hosted by a prominent religious leader Sheikh Mahmud.

The two men had lunch together and according to those at the event spent some time talking in private.

Anwar said he talked to Abdullah, but did not say what the conversation was about.

The meeting between the two leaders has become the subject of much speculation.

An aide to Anwar told The Malaysian Insider that he was not told what the two men talked about.

“But my boss was in a jovial mood,” he said. - malaysianinsider
