¶ 01 Hon. Presiding Member, finally, let me say this. Our policy declaration was presented under the theme “A Prosperous Country – A Beautiful Life.” We aim not merely for wealth in money, but to build a nation rich in attitude, knowledge, and physical and mental health, creating a beautiful country in which our future generations can live. With that appeal, I conclude.
