I am delighted to be among all the children, their teaching staff and parents here in your school in Dubai. Children in their innocence have a pure and noble mind and they enter our beautiful universe with a natural urge to seek and know more and more about themselves, and the world of life and man. Education is a societal response to satisfy this urge, and perfection in education has always been the goal of enlightened societies.

ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION: CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES

THE VISION FOR DEVELOPMENT

It is a great honour that you have bestowed on the Government and people of India, and indeed a delight for me, to address this highest Assembly of your ancient and great nation. I am deeply conscious that your country is at a crucial turning point in its history. Sudan, land of the two Niles, is the largest country in Africa. Both our countries share a rich heritage. This and our value system would be with us when we - India and Sudan move forward to the future.

Your Excellency Mr. Georgi Parvanov,

Distinguished Guests

Ladies and Gentlemen.

It is both an honour and a pleasure for me to be in your midst in the historic capital city of Sofia. Bulgaria is an ancient land, with a long history and a glorious cultural heritage. We know of its literary, philosophical and cultural tradition. The statue of Sofia, in the Centre of this beautiful city, holding the symbols of fame and wisdom in her hands and wearing the crown of the Goddess of fate truly characterizes the aspirations of all mankind.
