Malaysia King caps state visit with tour of Newater plant, Pasir Ris Camp

Malaysia's King, Sultan Abdullah Ahmad Shah, wrapped up his state visit to Singapore on Thursday evening after visiting the Newater plant and Pasir Ris Camp.

Sultan Abdullah was hosted by Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen at the camp, where he was briefed on the Singapore Armed Forces' Commandos and Special Operations Task Force. He also observed a display of counter-terrorism capabilities and visited the AirborneTrooper Training Facility.

Dr Ng said the SAF was honoured to host Sultan Abdullah, and that the visit "ended on a high note, literally, on board the Republic of Singapore Air Force's CH-47F Chinook helicopter, with a tour of Singapore and the Johor southern coastline".

The King was accompanied by Malaysia's Foreign Ministry secretary-general Amran Mohamed Zin, Transport Ministry secretary-general Isham Ishak, Malaysia's High Commissioner to Singapore Azfar Mohamad Mustafar and other senior Malaysian officials, said Singapore's Ministry of Defence.
