KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 14 — The wish of a pupil of Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Polis Depot to invite Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to attend a programme at his school came true today when the country’s top leader took time to drop by the Anak Malaysia Carnival organised by the school.

Despite his hectic schedule, Anwar said he made the visit to fulfil the invitation from the pupil, identified as Muadz, while also taking the opportunity to personally inspect the school’s infrastructure and safety needs.

“Alhamdulillah, I was quite surprised to see how lively the carnival was — it was almost like a family day! It was heartening to see the children enthusiastically taking part in various activities, with some dressed as police personnel, soldiers and firefighters, while parents also joined in to enliven the school-organised carnival,” he said in a Facebook post today.

Anwar said during his visit to the school, located within the Police Training Centre (Pulapol) in Jalan Semarak, he also took time to hear directly from the headmaster about several matters requiring attention, particularly the condition of the school’s facilities and the comfort and safety of the pupils.

“Insya-Allah, I will look into the matters raised for further action,” he said.

The Prime Minister also expressed his appreciation to Muadz and the entire school community for the warm welcome, while urging the younger generation to remain enthusiastic about pursuing knowledge for the country’s future.

“I pray that you will succeed in achieving your ambitions and one day be able to contribute to society and the nation,” he said. — Bernama
