"Churches cannot do it alone.

Businesses cannot do it alone.

Families cannot do it alone.

But together...

Together we can build communities where every girl grows up believing she matters.

Together we can build an economy where women thrive.

Together we can build homes filled with love instead of fear.

Together we can build a South Africa worthy of those courageous women who marched before us.

As your King, I pledge my continued commitment to promoting unity, dignity, opportunity, and hope.

May we never forget that when women rise, families rise.

When families rise, communities rise.

When communities rise, nations rise.

And when nations rise with justice and compassion, God is glorified.

May God bless every woman represented here today.

May God bless Vosloorus.

May God bless our traditional communities.

May God bless South Africa.

I thank you."
