Clinton pays a visit to Vietnam
09:05, 2014/07/22
Clinton, who visited Vietnam for the first time as the US president in November 2000, is visiting India, Vietnam, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Australia from July 16-23.
Former US President Bill Clinton is due to return to Vietnam as part of his Asia-Pacific trip to inspect Clinton Foundation operations in five regional countries.
 
 
A Clinton Foundation release says the trip demonstrates Clinton’s longstanding commitment to the Asia-Pacific region, as well as the work of the Clinton Foundation on a number of issues that are critical to the region, including global health and improved access to medicines, climate change and economic development.
In Vietnam, he will visit an orphanage on the outskirts of Hanoi to view a Clinton Health Access Initiative programme that aims to prevent tuberculosis among children living with HIV.
Clinton played an important role in normalising diplomatic relations between the US and Vietnam in 1995.
