The

Originally
shown at the United Nations headquarters in New York, and previously
exhibited in Kuala Lumpur and Sarawak, the exhibition was held
for the first time in Penang. The exhibition promotes the common
ethical values which can be the basis of peace and dialogue amongst
the world's religious communities.
One
common principle is the Golden Rule "Treat others as you
like to be treated", variations of which are found in all
religions.
This
multi-lingual exhibition was joinly organised by, USM, Konrad
Adenauer Foundation, and the Malaysian Interfaith Network. The
exhibition was made available in Malay, English and Mandarin.
The English version was exhibited at the Penang Municipal Council
Town Hall in Esplanade, the Bahasa Malaysia version was at USM
ABN Amro Arts and Culture Center in Beach Street and the Chinese
version was at the Alpha Utara Gallery in China Street.
