"Thank you President @HassanSMohamud for your kind wishes. Malaysia too is keen to enhance ties with Somalia, to realize mutually beneficial gains for our two brotherly countries,” Anwar tweeted.

Mohamud had expressed interest in enhancing bilateral relations between the two countries in his congratulatory tweet to Anwar.
