very strong and powerful speech to come from a young girl like her!!! >O< just like what we all believe in.... we HAVE the POWER to change and make an impact on the world!!! ^O^ very encouraging!!!
aiya I think somedays later one of us maybe more strong and powerful than her. Thanks for what you are doing here.
if more young people can be like her, then i think we can really solve the earth's problems...
but when will this day come?
i liked this speech a lot, cuz it let people see the power when we view from different angles.
can't find any further info on ECO, the organization the girl represented. anyway, like what calvin said, hope that HIF's voice will be heard by more and more people^^
if only our decisions weren't based solely on monetary gain
