"The Peace Park is a magnificent reaffirmation of the ideals that the University of
Kyung Hee and the people of Korea share with the United Nations. It is a powerful
testament to the feelings of brotherhood shared by all Koreans, no matter where
they live. And at a time when you have been so deeply saddened by the murder in
Iraq of one of your beloved sons, the Inauguration of the Peace Park is a fitting
occasion for us all to reaffirm our belief in the essential goodness of the human
spirit."
