The graduation theme: “CSUans Gearing Towards Continuous Journey to ASEAN Integration” speaks of endless possibilities for those willing to take on the journey and challenge towards excellence and global competitiveness. But while ASEAN integration might have opened up avenues for Asians like us to participate in the global market, we must be able to assess ourselves and see how we can take advantage of these promising opportunities given our realities. This is vision. Having the foresight to see vividly our goal, but grounded enough to know one’s condition. Far from the knowledge of everyone, ASEAN Integration is more than just a movement; it’s a symbol – of unity, of vision, and capacity. As a community and nation, we need to have common vision, and to move together in the same direction. We must be able to tap one another’s potential, to fine our niche, and optimize our gains. It is in this spirit that we encourage you, young and spirited individuals, to explore your potentials. Hone your skills and talents. Discover, invent, and continue to be productive. 19th Academic Convocation for the Conferment of Degrees and Titles Cagayan State University Lasam Campus 3 For at the end of the day, it is these struggles that we learn to appreciate life and our existence.
