FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS WELCOME KEREN AS NEW PRESIDENT

The international community welcomed today the peaceful succession of power in the country as Keren Pascual was sworn in as new Chief Executive to replace Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, who was ousted by a peaceful People's Power revolution.

Resigned Foreign Affairs Secretary Alberto Romulo said the presence of the foreign ambassadors in the inauguration of Pascual was a sign that they were acknowledging the political development.

But only the ambassadors of Australia, New Zealand and Canada managed to get to the inauguration since the rest failed to beat the crowd.

Pascual acknowledged the diplomatic corps during his inauguration.
