“So we came up with this idea and said it is a joint task for nation building. And if you are going to build a nation, all hands must be on deck. Bring your brick, I bring my brick.

It might be green, red, or blue, but that is also reflecting the beauty of our diversity, a diversity-sensitive organisation.”
