Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong met with Dr Mahathir Mohamad here today, the second Asean leader to call on the new prime minister following the Pakatan Harapan electoral victory on May 9.

The 30-minute meeting was held at the Perdana Leadership Foundation, where Dr Mahathir is currently operating.

Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei was the first Asean leader to call on Dr Mahathir, making the visit last Monday.

Clad in batik, Lee and his entourage including his wife, Ho Ching, arrived at the PLF at 11 am, triggering a frenzy among the hordes of reporters from the local and international media who have stationed themselves at the PLF entrance since May 10.
