you on your election as the 47th President of the United States. Your
impressive victory is a testament to the American people’s faith in your

“I am optimistic that your Presidency will not only advance
the American dream but also promote the cause for global peace, stability and
progress.
“Please accept my heartfelt congratulations, once again.”
