International actress Michelle Yeoh reportedly said she would wed fiance Jean Todt in Malaysia.

The 49-year-old said they were looking for a suitable date as both were "very busy".

"I will not get married in secret," she said. "I have friends all over the world but I will definitely return to Malaysia to get married."

According to My Paper, Michelle Yeoh was at a cocktail party in Hong Kong on Sunday when she dropped a tidbit that she is "carefully considering" marrying Todt  this year.

The actress and the 67-year-old president of the International Automobile Federation have been together since 2004.

Yeoh was in Hong Kong for the Asian Film Awards, where she was honoured with the Excellence in Asian Cinema Award.
