Will investor confidence recover with the economy?
January 22, around noontime in Washington, D.C., 54-year-old George W. Bush, Jr. took the oath of office that made him president of the United States. Meanwhile, at noon local time in Manila, Philippines, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, one year Bush’s junior, also took an oath of office, pledging to “accept the privilege and responsibility to act as president of the Philippines.”
The two heads of state are the offspring of former presidents, and both are moving on crises that divided their countries. George W. Bush, Jr. got off to a good start healing the political wounds caused by the 2000 election, while Arroyo has experienced a honeymoon after her predecessor, Joseph Estrada, was swept out of office last Jan. 21.
