Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said his wife, Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali, has recovered from mild food poisoning but is resting in a hospital in Kuala Lumpur.

Dr Mahathir, who concluded his three-day official visit to Vietnam on Wednesday, said he will go straight to the Prince Court Medical Centre to see her upon his return to Kuala Lumpur.

Dr Siti Hasmah, who was scheduled to accompany Dr Mahathir on the Vietnam visit, was admitted to the hospital on Monday.
