LONDON, March 17 – King Charles III recently celebrated his first Commonwealth Day at Buckingham Palace, and sent his regards to the people of Malaysia.
Dr Muruga Raj Rajathurai, president of the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA) and Commonwealth Medical Association, attended the event and shared the King’s appreciation for health care workers’ hard work and dedication during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“It is amazing, the work done by the medical team,” the King said, according to Muruga.
