美国总统奥巴马星期三与一位名人成为高尔夫新球友,他就是马来西亚总理拉扎克。

奥巴马和拉扎克都在地处太平洋的夏威夷度假。夏威夷是奥巴马的出生地。

圣诞前夕,在卡内奥赫湾美国海军陆战队基地,奥巴马、拉扎克以及奥巴马的两名助手打了一轮高尔夫。

白宫发表声明说,奥巴马和拉扎克利用这次机会讨论了美国和马来西亚之间不断发展的友好关系,并表示奥巴马期待明年与拉扎克总理合作,届时马来西亚将接任东盟轮值主席。

奥巴马今年初曾访问马来西亚。这是近50年来首位美国在任总统访问这个国家。

U.S. President Barack Obama played golf Wednesday with a new and distinguished playing partner - Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak.

Both Mr. Obama and Mr. Najib are vacationing in the U.S. Pacific state of Hawaii, the U.S. president's birthplace.  

The two leaders played a round of Christmas Eve golf at the Marine Corps base in Kaneohe Bay along with two of Mr. Obama's aides.

The White House released a statement saying the duo "took the opportunity to discuss the growing and warming relationship between the United States and Malaysia," and that the president looked forward to working with Mr. Najib next year, when Malaysia takes over the chair of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.

President Obama visited Malaysia earlier this year, the first sitting U.S. president to visit the country in nearly 50 years.
