His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej granted an audience to US President
Barack Obama on his visit to Thailand Sunday, his first foreign trip
after winning re-election earlier this month.
The US president paid a courtesy call on the 84-year-old King, the
world’s longest-reigning monarch, at Siriraj Hospital where he has been
staying for nourishment to regain his strength since September 2009 when
he was admitted with fever, fatigue and a lung inflammation.
Obama later held talks with Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra
before a joint press conference and an official dinner at Government
House.
Earlier Sunday, the US president visited Wat Pho Royal Monastery. A monk
gave him and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton a private tour of the
temple.
After Thailand, the US president visited Myanmar and Cambodia to attend
the 4th ASEAN-US Leaders’ Meeting and the 7th East Asia summit. (MCOT)
