It was a good interview. A person with a lot of both professional and international experience that can be useful to people. We can benefit from the experiences of such people related to the economic problems of the countries in these times. Thank you very much for your beautiful sharing.

Thanks for watching it. We had multiple small-group discussions with Michael also, and they were all outstanding. He has a wealth of knowledge and is a deep thinker and good communicator. Our students were truly blessed to have him visit campus and be so accessible to them.
