At the opening ceremony of the Walk, Mr. Lee said in his message, “Yesterday was the time for religions to unite as one. Now, only one thing remains. Let us achieve world peace by enacting an international law for the cessation of wars. In celebration of yesterday’s achievement, let us have a festival under the Creator,” and urged for efforts to bring about world peace together. Also, the chairwoman of IWPG, asked young people around the world to join Mr. Lee’s work for peace, saying, “Yesterday, all participants promised to work for peace, so let us all become the entities of peace.”
When Mr. Lee proclaimed the beginning of the Walk with his powerful voice, approximately 200,000 people, led by the youth of IPYG, began to walk shouting “World Peace.” Throughout the Walk, the youth dressed in traditional clothes of each country gave performances, celebrating the signing of the interfaith peace agreement the day before and expressing the wish for peace.
