China's top legislator leaves for home

Wu Bangguo, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of China, left Kuala Lumpur for home Tuesday after concluding his successful visit to Malaysia, the last leg of his four-nation Asia-Pacific tour.

Wu and his party were seen off at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport by Malaysian Deputy Speaker of the Lower House Lim Si Sheng and other high-ranking officials.

On Tuesday morning, Wu had a friendly conversation with Malaysia's Yang d-pertuan Agong (Supreme Head of State) Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin.

During his four-day stay in Malaysia, the China's top legislator also met with Malaysian Speaker of the Lower House Ramli Ngah Talib and Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.

Besides Malaysia, Wu's four-nation Asia-Pacific tour also covers Singapore, Australia and New Zealand.

China and Malaysia established diplomatic ties in 1974.
