¶ 01 I will conclude briefly, Hon. Presiding Member.

¶ 02 Therefore, I finally say this: to achieve something meaningful — a true, positive social transformation — we must fulfil our generational responsibility. Whether in Government or Opposition, whatever language or religion we speak or follow, these education reforms are before us to bring about change. Let us unite and act together. Let us advance the good and present a better tomorrow for our children. I rest my case.

¶ 03 Thank you very much.
