Former deputy prime minister Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail underwent a medical procedure at Sultan Idris Shah Hospital, Serdang, yesterday.

The hospital’s director, Dr Farique Rizal Abdul Hamid, said in a statement last night that the prime minister’s wife was in good condition but still required close monitoring by the medical team.

“We express our gratitude to all parties for their prayers and well wishes for the swift recovery of Wan Azizah and thank everyone for the privacy granted to her to receive treatment properly,” he said.

Her husband Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim on Facebook last night urged Malaysians to pray for her swift recovery.

“Through thick and thin together!” said Anwar, who included a photo of him with Wan Azizah at the hospital.
