The importance of character in law and order

I WOULD like to thank the organisers for inviting me to deliver the closing remarks to this conference, which I regard as a singular honour.

It is highly appropriate, both from timing and choice of host perspectives, that this inaugural conference is held. As to timing, when well-entrenched values steeped in history are threatened by majoritarianism, authoritarian governments and nationalistic populism across the globe, including in the United States and the United Kingdom, it is timely that first principles and fundamental issues are recalled and applied.

As for the executive, you heard the prime minister yesterday when he mentioned freedom of speech. Our people know that there is now far more space for the individual to express his or her thoughts, opinions and ideas.
