Siding with the powerless to unleash their fettered but inherent dynamism and strength to place them in the broad-way of growth, amply fueled and fired to move ahead and build up pro-progress environs, ensuring a harmonious society where social, political, economic, educational, cultural, in-family and inter-family, gender justice, equity and (possibly) equality, and play of good conscience, rule the roost.
