     For the tenth and last time as Secretary General, I offer friends and colleagues around
the world my best wishes on United Nations Day. I have spent almost all my whole
professional life working for the United Nations-sothisday , andthevaluesthatstand for ,
willal-ways be special for me.
     Over the past ten years, we have made some big steps forward in our common struggle
for development, security and human rights. Aid and debt relief have increased , making
the world economy somewhat fairer. At last, the world is increasing its response to
HIV/AIDS. There are fewer wars between States than there used to be , and manycivil
warshaveended. Moregovernments are elected by, and accountable to the people
whom they govern. And all States have acknowledged, at least in words, their
responsibility to protect people from genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing and
crimes against humanity.
     But there is so much that still needs doing.
     The gap between rich and poor continues to grow.
Thenuclearnon-proliferationregime (核不扩散机制) requires urgent attention.
Terrorism and the reaction to it are spreading fear and suspicion. It seems we don't
even agree which threats are most important. Those who live in small islands may
see global warming as the biggest danger. Those who live in a city that has suffered
terrorist attacks-likeNewYork , orMumbai, orIstanbul-may feel that confronting
terrorism is more urgent. Othersagainmaycitepoverty , disease , orgenocide. The
truth is , there are all global threats. All of us should be concerned about all of them.
Otherwise ,we may not succeed in dealing with any of them.
     At this time of all times. We cannot afford to be divided. I know that you, the people
of the world, understand this. Thank you for all the support and encouragement you have
given me, throughout these ten difficult but exciting years.
      Please urge your leaders to work with my successor, and make the United Nations
ever stronger and more affective.
     Long live our planet, and its peoples!Long live the United Nations!
