Meet 'Yi Yi', the second panda to be born in Malaysia
The second Malaysian-born panda has been given the name ‘Yi Yi’, which means ‘friendship’.
Born on Jan 14, 2018, the female cub is the offspring of Liang Liang and Xing Xing, the two giant pandas currently on a 10-year loan from China.
At the naming ceremony that took place at the Giant Panda Conservation Centre in Zoo Negara in Kuala Lumpur today, Water, Land and Natural Resources Minister Dr Xavier Jayakumar said the name had been carefully selected following consultation with the China Wildlife Conservation Association.
