Letter From The Presdent: One for the gals

Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents,
Nothing impresses me more than seeing a woman paying more than lip service to the popular saying that ?what a man can do, a woman can do better.?

I was very happy when I heard that the talkative Betty had been appointed head of the Legal Division of the Commonwealth Secretariat. I was equally elated and pleasantly surprised when I was told that Mrs. Blair is one of the most brilliant lawyers in the whole of Europe and that she earns even more than her husband. Some years ago, I rejoiced with the Sukarno family when their daughter, Megawati was elected president of Indonesia. I really want to meet that woman and shake hands with her. I only hope that she invites me to visit her before she gets out of office ? which could be anytime soon, judging by her poor showing in the elections of the last weekend. I have a long list of women I admire and respect. These are women who challenge me to be better in whatever I do.
