Our prayers may have been recited in different languages but the meaning in our hearts and mind was just the same.

But recalling 1994, let us remember the saying: “You can never tell whether a prophecy will hit or miss.” Korean history indicates that they never surrender to a dictator or aggressor, and no one can predict whether the people in the NK would revolt in some way and become more a more democratic and free society.

If individuals ground their life by internalizing a belief system based on love, their leaders will most probably have the same values in their life. Moreover, when people’s characters are shaped by love and tolerance, it will bring about peace and lead to the happiness of humanity.

All of our efforts to revive and develop the global economy will be in vain if we do not vanquish terrorism, extremism, and intolerance.
