NUSA DUA, Indonesia, Nov 19 (AFP): US President Barack Obama left Indonesia's Bali Island today after an Asian summit where he sought to underscore his administration's foreign policy shift towards the Pacific.
Obama, the first US president to take part in the East Asia Summit, left aboard Air Force One from Denpasar international airport at 4.35pm local time (0835 GMT), the news agency photographer saw.
Earlier Obama met China's Premier Wen Jiabao and prodded him on maritime territorial rows and economic wrangles, amid signs of Chinese scorn for his Pacific diplomatic push.
