International Environment Network Meeting in Tamano

December 10, (Sat), 1999
Tamano, Okayama, Japan


"Sustainable development, meaning the world we must leave to future generations in terms of available renewable resources, has become very much the tallest order of the day."
"Basic education is the true driving force for sustainable development in the world. I shall pursue this effort on behalf of basic education in every practical way throughout my term in office. Basic education moreover fosters the initial seeds of mutual understanding, through the twin key concepts of 'tolerance' and 'learning to live together', whereby all and each may be enriched in a harvest of many cultures."
