" Those of you living abroad exemplify the Bengali nation to the world, and your unflinching commitment to exalt our culture in certainly commendable. I hope that you will pass the torch on to the next generation of immigrant Bengalis to take up your stead.
One day white people ruled our country, whereas today, Bengalis have dispersed throughout the farthest corners of the globe. With their talent and diligence, they have created a Bengali nation that transcends geographic boundaries – a nation where all can rise above petty labels of caste, creed, and color, and cohabit in comity as humans.
Our nation's history is wrought with untold desolation and depredation. Many nations have come into our contact; we have assimilated them all, while never compromising our own identity. I fervently hope that wherever you live, you will convince people of the supremacy of our culture. As a patriot and a patron of Bengali culture, this is my fondest dream. To achieve that, however, we must attain a sizeable population at a given locale to constitute a voice loud enough to be heard. For example, generations of Sylhetis living in the U.K. have become a cultural force to be reckoned with.
Collectively, you can create a greater Bengali nation and an even larger cultural circumference, where all Bengalis are welcome regardless of national or religious labels. Of course, amity with the host nation and its people is a primary prerequisite to this.
Well, one cannot help sensing an unspoken bond with those striving for the actualization of a shared dream. I send my earnest wishes for the continued success of your organization. Long live the Bengali nation!"
