KATHMANDU, Aug 22: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli left for Singapore on Thursday afternoon for his health check-up.

According to a press statement issued by Oli's personal physician Dr. Divya Singh, the prime minister will receive treatment at National University Hospital in Singapore.

This is the second time the prime minister is visiting Singapore for his medical treatment in less than 15 days. Prime Minister had returned from Singapore on August 12, after his health check-up.

The medical check-up will be focused primarily on improving the function of his kidneys by gradually releasing the antibodies.
