They come from Taiwan, Canada, and 32 states across America in acknowledgement of Mr. Hubbard’s administrative technology, Dianetics and Scientology.
<P>
And finally, from Sebokeng, a rural township in South Africa, comes a tribute from the teachers and students of that nation.
<P>
Now, in Sebokeng, there is a tradition of honoring a great king or leader through song.
<P>
And today, in Sebokeng, that song is entitled “<A HREF="page21.htm">The Teacher of Teachers</A>” and dedicated to L. Ron Hubbard.
<P>
They just recorded it in honor of Mr. Hubbard’s birthday and I thought it appropriate to play it for you at tonight’s celebration.
<P>
