Yocomm sends its sincere and heartfelt greetings to Her Majesty the Queen, who has
been the inspiration for our work, and has been the “Agent for Change in the Commonwealth”.
What we in the Commonwealth appreciate is how dedicated Her Majesty has been to
her allegiance to the Commonwealth, and this is reflected in all the trouble she
has taken throughout the years in heading and gracing all the CHOGMS with her presence,
and keeping the Commonwealth Flag flying, and keeping us both Interested and inspired!!!!
Give your best wishes to Her Majesty on the occasion of her Diamond Jubilee
2012.

In my opinion women has always been an agent of change. to be so they do not have to be an activitist, a politician or for that matter to do something extraordinary.
Every mother, every house wife is an agent of change. If they are able to grow there children’s in a righteous way, if there able to keep the family unity together… there all “Agents of Change”. In the present world women forget that role, and the importance of it…. Because of that the are numerous problems in society we face today. Under age pregnancy levels, under age drinking, youth violence etc… have increased to extruding heights… especially in the UK it is more evident…

Although the women’s movement has already transformed the way in which we look at society in each of our countries, the search for equality is far from finished. History, culture and economics still remain weighted against women.
