Since that time up until the present time, there have been progress, and changes all through the time. The changes have not come by themselves; these changes have come from the doings of everyone in the country.

The nation is trying to catch up with a rapidly changing world.

We are a country with great potential. We have the political will to make deep changes in a just and equitable way, to put our country back on a development path, to meet the challenges of a new world.

A huge change has taken place in my lifetime.

If we want a great nation, we have to change it ourselves.

In the unrest of the masses I augur great good. It is by their realizing that their condition of life is not what it ought to be that vast improvements may be accomplished.

There are no doubts that, the situation in the country today, indicates that there is much more work to do in the process of reforming the political economy and improving the quality of life of our people and communities.

I believe the future of our country can be really great.

The world is changing very profoundly.

I cannot say whether things will get better if we change; what I can say is they must change if they are to get better.
