A video shared on Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s official social media page has become a topic of discussion online, particularly among Bangladeshi audiences. The video, highlighting Bangladeshi Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s recent visit to Malaysia, features the popular Bangladeshi song “Mohajadu” by renowned singer and composer Habib Wahid as its background music.

The song, which was released as the sixth track of Coke Studio Bangla Season 3, has gained widespread popularity in Bangladesh. Its inclusion in an official video posted by a foreign head of government has generated significant excitement and pride among Bangladeshi social media users.

After the video was published on Anwar Ibrahim’s verified page, it quickly caught the attention of Bangladeshi netizens. Many users expressed their appreciation in the comment section, describing the use of a Bangla song in an international political context as a proud moment for the country’s culture and music industry.

Prime Minister Tarique Rahman is currently visiting Kuala Lumpur at the invitation of Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. During the visit, he received a warm official welcome and held bilateral talks with his Malaysian counterpart in Putrajaya.

The discussions focused on a range of key issues, including labor market cooperation, trade, investment, and broader bilateral relations. Both sides emphasized strengthening economic and strategic cooperation between the two countries.

The visit is particularly significant as it marks Tarique Rahman’s first official overseas trip since assuming office as Prime Minister. Observers view the tour as an important step in deepening Bangladesh–Malaysia relations.

Many social media users believe that the inclusion of a Bangla song in the official video adds a unique cultural dimension to the diplomatic engagement and reflects the growing people-to-people and cultural connections between Bangladesh and Malaysia.
