Peace be upon you.
I'm Hussam Abd-elslam.
I'm a huge fan of the Sudanese people and the Sudanese culture
and I'm very very proud of it.
(Applause)
I think that all around the world, to my believes, there are no people like the Sudanese people.
People speak about the hidden riches
and about treasures hidden in the ground and about agriculture and other things
and they neglect the human side of the Sudanese person.
I think that we are very rich with our Sudanese character and our culture
and we are in dire need to tell the world about our culture
and we need to know each other more.
Most of our problems are because we don't know each other.
The act that has been presented to you is as you can see from Eastern Sudan
from Al-Beja, and they are such wonderful and beautiful people
they have many different rhythms
and they really need people to know them better to love them more.
It is my belief that if we found a chance to show our culture
and as the speaker before me said, arts as movies, drama and such
are the things that can help us get our ideas through to the others.
I think that the project I'm working on, the music and the songs
are the most things capable of showing our true nature as a Sudanese people
not only to the world, but even to each other
in few moments, I'm going to preform piece of music called (A journey to Darfur).
People know Darfur, but they don't know the inhabitance of Darfur
the people there are very beautiful, they love peace
this will be shown through what I'll perform now, entitled (Journey to Darfur).

We have in south Kordofan,
one of the most famous dances, is the Kambala
and it gives us an idea on how the people of Nubian tribes in south Kordofan live their lives.
Let's watch together The Kambala dance.

Thank you.
