It can be said that the sun never sets on the Commonwealth - we have nations from every part of the globe. We share the English language, and the richness of the parliamentary political tradition. We are all committed to the rule of law, and democratic principles. Many of us speak other languages as well in our home countries and we practise different religions. We are of different cultures. The colour of our skin is not the same. Yet, through what we share, and by choosing to be enriched by differences we have made the organisation work.
