Last October 18, 2003, the Philippines welcomed US President George W. Bush to an eight-hour state visit (only the second one in the country's history since Dwight Eisenhower in 1960). Malacañang called the visit a resounding success. Below are photos from the state dinner hosted at the Presidential Palace before the US President, wife Laura and party enplaned to Bangkok, Thailand.


Only the finest red carpet for a special and long-awaited friend.
