    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thank you for that guidance. Indeed, my friend just got me at a time when I wanted to express my endurance to our Constitution. Our Constitution underlines the importance of universal living values, which have been alluded to in this Report, and which we really need to embrace and include in our legislative and governance processes. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we are living in an environment of cultural diversity but it is embarrassing sometimes the way we view cultural diversity. We think there is an opportunity for us to divide ourselves when actually it is an opportunity for us to benefit from the ethos and values that are generated by the different communities and the different cultural expressions. This is the time and this report provides an opportunity for us to benefit from our cultural diversity in a positive way so that we are able to integrate harmoniously and be able to benefit from the talents and gifts that each one of us in our community backgrounds have to offer. In this way, then certainly as a nation we will be able to compare favourably with other nations. On the other aspect of patriotism which is expressed in Chapters 1 and 2 of the Constitution, it has an opportunity to succeed through discussion of this report and implementation of the recommendations that have been made therein. I would like to join those who have supported this Bill and so I support."
