APEC 2006
President's Trip to Southeast Asia
2:35 P.M. (Local)
THE PRESIDENT: Mr. President, thank you very much for your hospitality. Laura and I have been struck by the friendliness of the people of Vietnam. In our drive through this beautiful city we were pleased to see thousands of your citizens with smiles on their faces. And we're so grateful.
I've been reading and studying about your country and I have seen
now firsthand the great vibrancy and the excitement that's taking place
in Vietnam. You're like a young tiger, and I look forward to
continuing to work to make sure our bilateral relations are close. And
thank you for hosting APEC. And thank you for hosting a dinner for us
tonight, we're really looking forward to it.
END 2:37 P.M. (Local)
