"You are the ambassadors of your country; you represent your country with your ethics and values that stems from our religion, so I advise you that you all will be up to the responsibility, in mannerism and dealings with others; and I have no doubt that you will comprehend it in its entirety, and you are the best ones to represent your country and family, and I ask Allah to grant you every success in your noble endeavor.
