In a speech on the occasion, "My sons and daughters on scholarships everywhere in this world, there is no doubt that you will understand that nations do not rise without the hands of its people, and you know that knowledge is a broad gateway and an effective tool in the development process, so it is the responsibility that lies on every student on scholarship - male and female, to make it obligatory to seek with tireless determination to acquire knowledge and learning; you are after all- the builder of the future era, a future that will not accept anything less than to be in the forefront for the sake of our country that is generous to us and which expect from us the fruits of what it has given to us to make our country rise among nations.
"You are the ambassadors of your country; you represent your country with your ethics and values that stems from our religion, so I advise you that you all will be up to the responsibility, in mannerism and dealings with others; and I have no doubt that you will comprehend it in its entirety, and you are the best ones to represent your country and family, and I ask Allah to grant you every success in your noble endeavor.
