<p>NEW YORK (BNO NEWS) -- Former U.S. President George W. Bush became a grandfather Saturday when his daughter gave birth to her first child in New York City, the family announced on late Sunday. It had been a long wish of the former president to finally have grandchildren.

</p>

<p>Jenna Bush Hager, the younger of the former president's fraternal twins, gave birth to a baby girl at around 8:43 p.m. local time on Saturday at an undisclosed location in New York City. The baby's name is Margaret Laura "Mila" Hager, and both mother and child are said to be healthy.

</p>

<p>"Laura and I are thrilled to announce the birth of our grandchild, Margaret Laura 'Mila' Hager," said George W. Bush in a brief statement released by his spokesman on Sunday. "Mila, daughter of Jenna and Henry Hager, is named for her grandmothers. We met our beautiful granddaughter today. Jenna and Mila are healthy. And our family is elated."

</p>

<p>No other details were immediately, but the former first daughter had previously told People Magazine that her father had a wish for grandchildren. "I don't have any children. I just have a cat, to my parents' dismay," she told the magazine in 2011. "My dad saw my husband's boss at a conference, and he said to stop paying my husband until we produce children.

</p>

<p>Jenna Bush Hager, 31, married Henry Chase Hager in May 2008 during a lakeside ceremony at her father's Prairie Chapel Ranch in Crawford, Texas. George W. Bush was in office from 2001 until 2009, when incumbent President Barack Obama took over.

A joyous occasion for Bush, in spite of the usual snipe from a detractor.

Just as long as he doesn't drape a 'Mission Accomplished' banner on his front lawn, I won't say a thing. ;)

I have a feeling that isn't going to happen, Chuckd. My delete button is working quite well and this thread is about the former U.S. President having a grandchild, not about his politics or terms in office.

Are you suggesting he's the grandfather, and father of the child? I hope not.

Redneck conspiracy nuts have a problem expressing themselves correctly . . . let's give him the benefit of the doubt

      Grandmother Killed, 7 Hurt in Pickup-Songthaew Crash

      Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 78-year-old woman was killed and seven others injured after a pickup truck crashed into the rear of a parked songthaew, on the Nakhon Phanom–Na Kae Road on the morning of 2 August. The incident occurred near Ban Don Daeng, in Kham Toei subdistrict, Mueang District. Police, medics from Nakhon Phanom Hospital and multiple rescue units responded to the scene on Highway 2033. Emergency services arrived to find a yellow songthaew, operated by the Nakhon Phanom Transport Cooperative, with extensive damage to its rear and right-hand side. The vehicle had reportedly stopped on the roadside to pick up passengers when the collision happened. Debris and personal belongings were strewn across the road. Lying at the rear of the vehicle was the body of Ms. Ban aged 78, who had been a passenger. She was thrown from the vehicle upon impact and pronounced dead at the scene. Four other passengers, three women and one man, sustained injuries and were rushed to hospital. Nearby, a Toyota Vigo pickup truck bearing Nakhon Phanom registration plates was found with front-end damage. The driver, identified as 45-year-old Mrs. Chanakan, had been taking her two sons to tutoring classes in the city. All three suffered injuries and were also transported to Nakhon Phanom Hospital for treatment. Initial investigations suggest the songthaew had slowed or stopped on the shoulder of the road to pick up passengers. The pickup truck, which was travelling behind, may have been speeding and failed to notice the parked vehicle in time, leading to the high-impact crash. Police are continuing their investigation to determine the exact cause of the accident. CCTV footage from nearby areas is being reviewed as part of the probe. The body of the deceased has been released to her family for religious rites. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-08-03

      Suvarnabhumi Ranked Among World’s Best for Air Connectivity

      Picture courtesy of Koaded. Suvarnabhumi Airport has been ranked among the top 10 airports in the world for air connectivity in 2024, according to a report released by the Airports Council International Asia-Pacific and Middle East (ACI APAC & MID) in collaboration with global consulting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). Thailand’s main international gateway secured 7th place in the “Top 10 Hub Airports with Connectivity Leadership” and 9th place in the “Top 10 Airports in Air Connectivity” for 2024. The rankings were based on a variety of criteria, including network scale and frequency, the economic importance of destinations served and the quality and efficiency of passenger connections. These factors help determine how well airports facilitate both domestic and international travel, as well as their strategic importance in the global aviation network. The Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited (AOT), which operates Suvarnabhumi, hailed the recognition as a reflection of the airport’s growing role as a vital regional transport hub and a gateway to ASEAN. “The achievement highlights Suvarnabhumi Airport’s strategic position in the Asia-Pacific region and its role in connecting passengers across continents,” an AOT spokesperson said on 1 August. Suvarnabhumi recently expanded its infrastructure, with the opening of the SAT-1 terminal, further enhancing its operational capacity. The improvements aim to accommodate growing passenger volumes and to improve service quality. AOT reaffirmed its commitment to continuous development and innovation to meet global standards, enhance passenger experience and strengthen Thailand’s competitiveness in both the aviation and tourism sectors.
