Malaysia's Home Affairs Minister Muhyiddin Yassin was in Singapore to receive medical treatment over the past month at Mount Elizabeth Hospital.
According to local media, the former member of UMNO (part of the ex-ruling Barisan Nasional coalition) was discharged on Tuesday, Aug. 7, after spending close to a month recuperating from a July 12 surgery to remove a growth on his pancreas.
But the real story here is the illustrious list of visitors he received during his stay at Mount E.
Here's a sampling of the roll call:

He will be resting temporarily with the family.
Thank you to all of Singapore's doctors, nurses and staff of Mount Elizabeth Hospital. Thank you to all who have prayed for his health and spent time visiting YB Tan Sri Muhyiddin Hj Mohd Yassin while he was there."
