The Kelantan Sultan will remain warded at the Universiti Sains Malaysia Hospital (HUSM) in Kubang Kerian for follow-up treatment for his heart problem, comptroller of the Kelantan Royal Household, Abdul Halim Hamad said today.

He said so far, there was no plans yet to transfer the ruler to another hospital, including Kuala Lumpur Hospital.

"The Sultan is still at the Royal Ward at HUSM and there is no plans yet to transfer him to another hospital," he said when contacted here.

The Sultan was admitted to the hospital last Tuesday.

The Sultan's second wife, Che Puan Elia Suhana Ahmad, visited her husband at the hospital last night.

She arrived at the hospital about 11pm, accompanied by a policewoman and two male aides, and was at the Royal Ward for about two and half hours before leaving about 1.30am today.

Elia Suhana was said to be overseas, but returned yesterday after being informed that the Sultan had been admitted to HUSM.

MB not told of Sultan's health

Meanwhile, the Regent of Kelantan, Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra, bestowed awards and medals to 344 recipients at a supplementary investiture ceremony at the Istana Balai Besar here today.

The recipients included three state executive councillors - State Agriculture, Rural Industry and Biotechnology chairman Che Abdullah Mat Nawi, State Information, Science Information Development and Technology Committee chairman Dr Mohamed Fadzli Hassan and State Women, Family and Health Committee chairman Wan Ubaidah Omar.
