"content": " Thank you for the opportunity Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to start by congratulating Sen. (Dr.) Zani for not only being a patriot, but also being alive and awake to limitations in time because some of our laws and Acts of Parliament do expire. This is one of them. It expires after 50 years. It is not easy for us to catch that. Sometimes it takes people who are cautious and awake to catch and help us renew our laws and Acts of Parliament. There are three reasons why I would like speak to this. One, there are many of our laws that require special attention, but this one is about patriotism. This is a situation where, in my view, all Senators should be present to discuss. Sometimes I fail to understand when a Motion like this is being discussed and you find that it is not catching the interest of everybody in this country, including all Senators. I think they should all be here to discuss something about our flag and emblems. This is a very important part of our law. I congratulate Sen. (Dr.) Zani for being that cautious and conscious to make us think about our national anthem, emblems and names. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will mostly focus on the national anthem because that is the unifying factor for us. It is one of the elements that make us a nation. When you become a nation, you must have a Constitution and a national anthem. Let me begin with The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
