Description[?]:
| Our current government will be remembered for its reformist path, health, education, the political system itself, even if we're discouraged by the opposition, we still fight for our ideals in the best way we can, with the power of the Parlamento. Today I want to support this bill, that will create better opportunities for our children, who will rule the tomorrow's world. The Education system held only by the State is inefficient, the State doesn't have the money to set up new schools, today we're not making the education a privilege, we're allowing more schools to be founded, and we're creating regulations, to be sure that we're raising children that are educated with patriotism. We're constructing a new world, let us be the founders of a new Egelion, based on the values of Liberty and Patriotism. -Reinaldo Flores, Minister of Education and Culture. |
