NEWYORK: New York city Mayor Eric Adams congratulated the Kazakhstan community on the eve of their Republic Day.
Addressing a flag-raising ceremony, New York Mayor Eric Adams said that when he became the mayor, he wanted to make sure that this community was acknowledged and understood that we appreciate your contributions and what you bring as part of the melting pot of ideas, of culture, of how we live in unison as one.
He said that it ‘s a beautiful story that the commissioner talked about and it just goes to show us that although we celebrate our independence, we are dependent on each other.
“And nothing personifies that more than this great community, the Kazakhstan community and the three years that we have been raising the flag,” he said.
“When we do these flag raisings here at the foundation of our economic strength, a place we call Bowling Green, it’s an opportunity of all of our countries to know that you are not forgotten. In fact, you are part of the fabric of this great city,” he said.
“We want to continue that relationship, that success. We want you to continue to contribute to what we believe is the foundation of our city. You believe in family, you believe in faith, you believe in public safety, you believe in business, and that is why we want to celebrate you and lift your flag and say happy independence,” he said.
Mayor Adams said that let’s continue to be independent as our individual cultures and countries, but let’s be dependent on each other how we continue to make this the city where we all can reach the full potential of our dreams, and that’s the American Dream.
