President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono will go back to Vietnam
again to attend the 17th ASEAN summit through Minangkabau airport in
Padang, West Sumatra, on Friday.
The President was scheduled to take off aboard a special
presidential aircraft at 10 a.m. in a travel which would take three hours to
Hanoi.
Teuku Faizasyah, a special Presidential staff in foreign
affairs, disclosed that in Hanoi the President would attend a ceremony for the
handover of ASEAN chairmanship from Vietnam to Indonesia, according to Antara.
Yudhoyono cut short his visit to the summit and went back to
Indonesia on Wednesday to directly monitor mitigation activities on the
aftermath of tsunami disaster which hit Mentawai Islands, West Sumatra several
days ago.
