It's a great privilege to be here.
It's a long time since I've been doing this kind of work.
In the meantime, I have been working, doing other things in education and relief,
and that is why I'm exceptionally happy today that this fantastic achievement,
the Nobel Peace Prize, is being given to the man who is doing so much to alleviate poverty,
Mr.
Mohamed Younis.
And poverty, actually, the erasure or the eradication of poverty definitely is the way to peace.
I'd like to sing a song that has something to do with that.
It's linked, slightly.
And you probably [C] recognize.
