UN General Assembly
1954

I should like to begin my statement by extending to the President and to his delegation my congratulations on his election to the Presidency of this session of the General Assembly. I am sure the United Nations will benefit from his guidance. 2. I wish also to pay tribute to Mrs. Pandit, who presided so ably and so gracefully over the eighth session of the General Assembly. My country is also most appreciative of the honour done us by Mrs. Pandit by her recent visit to Indonesia in her capacity as President of the General Assembly. My people will long remember her visit as a great pleasure and privilege.
