But it enables one to sparkle, to catch the attention of the key investor or potential tourist, to make things happen. I wish you well in 2003 and beyond in sparkling for your fraternal countries, forging links that are crucial to our mutual economic success and our ability to understand and appreciate one another.
Once again it is our honour and privilege to host you at this function which has become one of the highlights of the calendar of the South African Reserve Bank. May the friendships between South Africa and your countries continue to go from strength to strength. Thank you. 4  BIS Review 72/2002
