A new era begins
The world has happily witnessed the historic event of America's 44th president Barack Hussein Obama's assuming the office the other day. The vibrant inauguration programme, the historic presidential speech by the president and the teeming crowds of the people flocking around Washington D.C. and beyond marked the occasion to such an extent that people across the world are, as it appears, struggling to find the fitting term to attach to the day --- the day's spirit! It is, as some tend to say, the most important day on this earth in this twenty first century with all its difficult twists and turns, as people across the globe have found a fitting leader with vision and clarity of thoughts and action in the 44th president of the USA. The magnitude of expectations that is generated from the people and embraced the leadership of the president is huge and multifaceted to meet, one understands. President Obama's foreign policy, as experts think, will have a definite and concrete course to settle down some burning issues like Iraq, Afghanistan , Gaza or Palestine Israel , to mention but a few; and re-establish or refurbish America's image to the wider world namely the Muslim world which went awry in the previous Bush era. We wish him good health and a long life. Three cheers for the 44th American President Barack Hussein Obama!
