"I would broadly say wherever there is African blood there is a basis for greater unity. We must also help each other in our endeavours to expand education, to raise the standard of living of our respective peoples. To this end we wish to signify the appreciation of the sentiments held by the Jamaican people for the Ethiopian people and as a manifestation of our sincere friendship, within our very limited means, we have made an agreement with the Jamaican Government to establish a school (Haile Selassie High School) for Jamaicans here. I am confident that all the preliminary procedures will be concluded so that the construction of the school will commence within the near future. Lastly, may God give wisdom and His blessings to the people of Jamaica. Thank you." H.I.M. Haile Selassie I
