Envoy: China’s President Xi to host dinner for PM Anwar at Beijing’s Great Hall of People during working visit.

SHANGHAI, Nov 4 — PM Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will receive great honour since Chinese President Xi Jinping has agreed to host a dinner for him at Great Hall of People in Beijing on Nov 7. This is a great honour for M'sia because these two leaders are not on the same level...not equal,” M'sian Ambassador to Beijing Datuk Norman Muhamad said in press conference in conjunction with the prime minister’s visit to country. Anwar is expected to arrive in Shanghai tonight, his first stop before going to Beijing, to begin a four-day working visit to China.

“This is a working visit for the prime minister. He will meet Xi who is head of state whereas our prime minister is head of govt. To be the head of state & to ‘host’ head of govt is indeed an honour,” he explained.
