Holding on to hope

In the United Kingdom, a significant change took place with the ascension of a new king. King Charles III was crowned on May 6, marking the beginning of a new era for the British monarchy.

As we reflect on the events of 2023, it becomes evident the world continues to face numerous challenges, emphasizing an urgent requirement for worldwide collaboration and united efforts to forge a better 2024.

In the face of these daunting challenges, it is important to bear in mind the words of Victor Hugo in the book Les Miserables — "Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise" — that a new dawn is waiting for us.
