U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton arrived in Malaysia for an official visit accompanied by a delegation of key senior officials from the U. S. Department of State.
Clinton was greeted by Malaysian Foreign Minister Anifah Aman at the airport Monday night. This is the first official visit to Malaysia by the U.S. Secretary of State since the 1995 visit by Warren Christopher.
According to Malaysian Foreign Affairs Ministry, Hillary Clinton's agenda includes a meeting with Anifah. However, she will hold talks with Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin instead of Prime Minister Najib Razak who is ill with chicken pox.
The Memorandum of Understanding between the governments of the largely Muslim Malaysia and the U.S. on science and technology cooperation will be signed during her visit.
