Malaysian environmental journalist Karam Singh Walia, who is suffering from liver disease and kidney problems, has received support from no less than Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.

Anwar’s political secretary Ahmad Farhan Fauzi had represented the PM to visit the ailing journalist famed for his Malay pantuns and proverbs when delivering his investigative reports at free-to-air television channel TV3.

In a Facebook post today, Anwar said Farhan had also presented a donation to alleviate the burden of his medical costs.
