USA joins 25th Hornbill Festival as country partner
The USA is the newest country to join the 25th edition of Hornbill Festival as Country Partner. Announcing the development in X today, Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio expressed gratitude to the US Embassy in India for the collaboration, and welcomed the American delegation and artists to the Festival. The partnership makes the USA the fourth Country Partner for the festival, after Wales, Japan and Peru.
One other thing I would like to convey is that in place of trying to accommodate all your online degree lessons on days that you complete work (because most people are exhausted when they get home), try to obtain most of your sessions on the weekends and only a few courses on weekdays, even if it means taking some time off your weekend break. This pays off because on the week-ends, you will be a lot more rested and also concentrated with school work. Thanks a bunch for the different points I have realized from your blog.
