1. “58. Mr. President, the Pakistan delegation is exceedingly happy to see you in the Chair. Your election to that high office is the General Assembly's tribute alike to Indonesia and to you personally for your remarkable statesmanship and dedication. Our gratification at it, of course, also derives from the fraternal relations which Pakistan enjoys with Indonesia, a great nation that shares our spiritual culture and heroically faces problems some of which are similar to our own. It is fitting that a distinguished Asian should preside over this session. As is well known, some of the overriding political issues confronting the world community at present impinge primarily on Asia, our long-suffering continent. 59. I should like also to mention here how much my delegation admired Mr. Hambro's presidency last year.”
