A thread on Lowyat suggested that the Obamas may be in Bangsar South as a netizen claimed that there was strict security since this morning due to the Obamas being in Malaysia. That said, we cannot verify if the Obamas are actually in Bangsar South.
If you didn’t know, this gathering is for 200 upcoming leaders from Asia-Pacific countries and they will be a “part of a year-long programme focused on values-based, ethical leadership”.
