I would not want to see this new and innovative thrust getting jeopardised. The current consultations between university authorities and representatives of our students must continue, all in the spirit of amity and genuine desire to find solutions that are workable for both those institutions and benefitting students. On its part, Government will also look at ways of lightening the burden of tertiary education, especially as the Economy consolidates and continues on a positive trajectory.

Rejecting politically-motivated class disruptions

What would be reprehensible is for some politically-minded elements within the student community to use this needful fees review to disrupt studies and the smooth running of these key institutions. It is in everyone’s interest to ensure studies continue without undue interference and disruptions. That should be everyone’s goal. I look forward to capping more graduands this year, marking yet another successful academic year and the beginning of numerous careers for the development of our country.

Lastly, last week was my birthday. I turned 80. I was inundated with many messages of love and affection. I felt snowed under by these felicitations, each of which I personally read, and which I would have loved to respond to personally. Regrettably, time does not allow. Thank you all who sent me those very warm messages, and still many others who joined me in spirit as I marked and celebrated my birthday.

In great love, we move forward together!
