Fellow presidents and honored guests,

It is a great honor to have all of you here at Seoul National University for the Fifth Asian Universities Forum. Thank you all for being here for this important event.

This is truly a rare occasion --- Presidents and representatives of twenty three major universities from fifteen different Asian countries have gathered here in one place.

This fact alone makes our forum fruitful and successful.

I believe that our collaboration will provide a solid ground for our students to become global leaders with compassion and social responsibility. Once again, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to all of the delegations for coming all the way to Seoul, sharing ideas and celebrating our achievements together.

I look forward to a productive and memorable session. Thank you all very much.
