Tamilians are equal to Jews. Tamilians population in Tamilnadu is alone Seven and half crores. But Tamil people are all over the world. Worldwide Tamil population is equal to that of Jews. UNESCO gave 14th place to Tamil as the most respected world language. We have to bring that to 10th position. Singapore is the first country in the world to announce Tamil as its official language. After that Sri Lanka and others announced too.
In old days, To capture Places, For economy, For Medical and For Business purposes, Tamil people went out of Tamilnadu in four groups. No country have objected our entry as they did to Jews. Similar to ‘Trinity School of Music’ for Western Music, we have to form Tamil Cultural Centre. We’ve planned to form a Research Portal. Chicago is the sixth country to host World Tamil Conference. After Jews, It’s the Tamilians who get the Highest amount of salary in America. We have to make visible our Tamil pride to America and world.”
Isari Ganesh said, “FeTNA’s 31st Annual Tamil Conference is going to happen in Grand way. Minister Ma Foi K Pandiarajan is the only person in the Tamil Legislative Assembly to talk in both Tamil and English Fluently. Wherever VGP Santhosam goes, he keeps a Thiruvalluvar Statue in that country. Our Vels University is the only university where both Father and Son study together. R. Pandiarajan is soon to become Dr.Pandiarajan.”
VGP Santhosam started his oration with Thirukkural and also said Kaniyan Poongundranar’s “யாதும் ஊரே யாவரும் கேளீர்”. He further said, “Tamil lives forever. There is a Tamil Academy in all countries. FeTNA operated beautifully. Tamil Culture should also be Protected. I’m also going to participate in this year’s FeTNA Tamil Conference.
