Dear Ambassadors, ladies and gentlemen. Good afternoon!

Thank you for coming to the World Leader Summit of Love and Peace! This event at the United Nations is FOWPAL’s first conference for the year 2019. We appreciate the support from all of our guests who are here with us today. A year starts in the spring, and a good start is the key to success. As we exchange wisdom, we can bring blessings to the citizens in the world.

Self-interest causes human corruption and immorality. The serious misuse and uneven distribution of the Earth’s natural resources is the cause of extreme weather and the deterioration of the planet. The survival of humanity is at stake.

Something or nothing, success or failure, as well as present or future all depend on the heart. The key to transforming the world lies in the culture of conscience formed by the conscience in each person’s heart. This unbiased and selfless culture transcends national borders; it is the salvation of the Earth and all humanity.

Only when humanity comes together, allows conscience to take the lead, and purifies our hearts can we transform the world in the tug of war between good and evil. Only when our hearts are as pure and kind will we have a chance to restore the Earth to its original simplicity and beauty.

FOWPAL has set April 5th as the International Day of Conscience. And today we launched the global endorsement of the Declaration of International Day of Conscience. Its purpose is to remind people to follow their hearts, encourage people to self-reflect and reach inner peace. By implementing global citizenship education that promotes a culture of love and conscience, we wish that the conscience of all people can be awakened so that peace and harmony may prevail in the world.

Everyone here is a key leader with great influence in the world. As we consolidate our ideals and put them into action, we can abide by our conscience to spread love to the world, use wisdom to resolve conflicts, and live together in peace and harmony. Together, we can realize world peace and wellbeing of all mankind.

Thank you all!
