 Commander, U.S. Pacific Command was among many military and political leaders who met in Singapore May 30th for the 2014 Shangri-La Dialogue Summit. The summit aims to build ties in the region and strengthen partnerships during the Asia-Pacific rebalance. We're here in Singapore for the annual Shangri-La Dialogue, which is a security dialogue which focuses on the Asia-Pacific. Brings a lot of countries together, the leadership of the Secretary of Defense level, Prime Minister level, Chairman level, and then certainly PECOM, we come out here and support the efforts as best we can. First we want the people of this region to understand that we are a Pacific nation, that we have a lot of interest out here, that we care about the security environment, that we're a good reliable ally, a good partner, and we want to grow partnerships out here.
