Speech at the Launch Ceremony of “The Golden Bird in the Sun” and the Copyright Export Ceremony of “The Epic of Eurasia” and the Signing Ceremony of the Chinese Version of “The Epic of Humanity” at the 31st Beijing International Book Fair
By Adel Khozam（UAE）
Good morning everybody. In this occasion I want to congratulate my friend, the poet; Cao Shui for his great achievement in Beijing in the international book fair and I wish him a very successful event. Second, I want to congratulate him for the great successful event, which was been held here in Dubai last month with the international Silk Road festival for poetry and art, which was a really great experience to build bridges between the Arab world and China.
This is a good chance for us to find peace and beauty and poetry through our languages and through our poetry. Thirdly, I want to talk about his work with me in so many different files, especially in the book titled: ‘Manseerah’ or ‘The great epic poem from all over the world’. This book is the first book in the history of poetry where so many poets from all over the world wrote in it and together made one great epic poem for the human of today. 86 poets from all over the world wrote in this book. I wrote the beginning and Mr Cao wrote the end of this book and I wish that when you published it in China it will be a great achievement also so people all over the world can know that that we can work as poets together to bring beauty and peace for everyone. Thank you again and good luck! Thank you.
