Bill Clinton was here at INTI International University, Nilai giving a speech to students. It was reported in The Star right here.
In his speech, Clinton gave a definition of a good citizen of his time and today.
“In my time, the definition was this: If you are young, you get as much education as you can, you give your best effort when you take a job, you pay your taxes honestly and you cast an informed vote in every election,” he said.
“Today, one more item has been added – every educated person with awareness of social conditions should also devote his time, skill and even resources to solve public concerns as a private citizen.”
I find what he said was really inspirational.
I wonder why our local politicians could not give such inspirational political speeches like most of the American presidents could do.
