I wish to take this opportunity to thank millions of micro-borrowers and thousands of staff who have worked so hard to right a wrong which has caused so much avoidable human misery. We can now be about setting the stage to unleash human creativity and the endeavor of the poor. We can now collaborate around a process which will send poverty to the museum... At the moment of the Wright Brothers first flight - which lasted only 12 seconds, the seed of a new world was planted. 65 years later, men walked on the moon. Let's ensure that in less than that time interval we will go to our moon - creating a world without poverty. 1997, M.Y., first microcreditsummit, http://microcredit.tv
