Maldivian students in Malaysia have decided not to meet with President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu.

President Muizzu is scheduled to visit Malaysia on Sunday.

The President's Office has stated that President Muizzu will depart for an official visit to Malaysia on Sunday.

The President's Office announced last Thursday that President Muizzu has decided to visit the country from April 27 to April 30 on an official trip at the invitation of Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.

The President's Office also revealed that a delegation of Cabinet Ministers and senior government officials will accompany the president on the trip.

Speaking to RaajjeMV at a time the Maldivian president is set to travel to Malaysia, a Maldivian student living in Malaysia highlighted that none of the students studying in Malaysia wishes to meet with President Muizzu. He said that all the students there have come to a mutual agreement not to meet the president.

The student went on to note that after all the students refused to meet with President Muizzu, the Embassy in Malaysia has been calling the students asking if they will come to meet the president. The student clarified that when the embassy calls and asks, all the students have been refusing to attend the meeting.

This is Muizzu’s first official trip to Malaysia.

The President's Office said that the aim of the trip is to further strengthen the long-standing close relationship between the two countries. The President's Office has also stated that during the president's trip, a special meeting would be held to understand the situation of Maldivians living in Malaysia and to identify their difficulties.
