00:00Giant pandas Fuwa and Feng Yi will be repatriated to China in May, as Malaysia prepares to welcome
00:09a new pair under a fresh 10-year conservation agreement.
00:13The Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Ministry said on Saturday, the new agreement
00:19was signed on April 16, during Chinese President Xi Jinping's state visit to Malaysia.
00:25The collaboration allows Malaysia to host another pair of giant pandas from 2025 to 2035, which
00:33will continue the long-standing international cooperation project on giant panda conservation
00:40with the Chinese government.
00:42To prepare for their return, the two pandas, which have been living in Malaysia for 10 years,
00:47will undergo a quarantine process beginning April 18 at the Giant Panda Conservation Centre
00:53in Zoo Negara.
00:55The Ministry said this will ensure their health is in optimal condition, fulfill international
01:00requirements, and allow them to acclimatize for their flight back to China.
01:06During the period, visitors will not be able to see the pandas up close, but may still catch
01:11glimpses of them at designated times.
01:14The pandas produced three cubs, which were born at Zoo Negara, and have since been repatriated
01:20to China.
01:21The Ministry said Zoo Negara will organize programs, including a message board, documentary screenings,
01:28sessions with panda keepers, and creative competitions, to bid farewell to Fuwa and Fengyi.
01:34The zoo will also upgrade its facilities during the interim period before receiving the new panda
01:38pair in August this year.
