Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. [Translation] I would like to say something. I want to say thank you to all our visitors. You have to say thank you very much. I am representing Monfwi region and I would like to say thank you to all the people in that region, and we also have to remember the people that we sit with. But I am also married; I have a wife and children. I would like to say thank you to all my family and also I would like to thank my mother and my father who are in the audience. I also have a lot of Tlicho citizens in the audience. So I would like to say thank you very much for their support.
I hope that we will do well this year. We want to work together for the next four years. That is our job that we will be doing. From here and on, I would like for us to move forward in a positive direction.
In the North there are a lot of things that we’re worried about. In the North we have to support one another in order to accomplish a lot of these things that we have to work on together. We also represent 33 communities. So we have to support one another and work together. That is why we are here.
I’m so happy to be in amongst these MLAs here. They also have the same feeling; they want to support each other and to move ahead for the next four years in this House. So I would like to say thank you and I would like to thank all the visitors, our families and friends and all the Members. I’m so happy that we had a good opening with this 17th Assembly. Let’s move forward in a positive way. Thank you.
