DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

5:00 P.M. (Local)

MRS. BUSH: Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you all very much, and thank you, Your Highness, for your kind introduction. And thank you for standing with Emirati women and for your important humanitarian work that you do throughout this country.

Thank you for the warm welcome to your beautiful Dubai. I'd like to thank the Chairman of the Dubai Chamber of Commerce. Thank you very, very much for letting us be here and for your kind words when you started. Hala Moddelmog, the CEO of Susan G. Komen for the Cure; our Ambassador, Ambassador Michele Sison, Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates.

Business executives, philanthropists, government officials, community leaders, distinguished guests -- I'm delighted to be in Dubai today to talk about how we can work together to save women's lives -- by raising women's awareness of breast cancer.

Over the next quarter-century, an estimated 25 million women around the world will be diagnosed with breast cancer, which is why people from every country must share their knowledge, resources and experience to protect women from this disease.
