The Taoist priest. The Imam. The buddhist monk. They are expected to learn Theology. It is only in Christianity that everyman gets to study the bible and go as far or as deep as he wants. Also only in Christianity, women can get ordained and the wall between male and female is smashed. This is why Yahweh is so respected among the pagans here. Every fisherman's son can excel and is given a chance to go up higher. This is the ethos of a mission university, free education for all. Once we lift the tariffs on higher education orthodoxy can truly become universal” - Dr Preecha Jengjalern, Dean of the Graduate School, King’s College.

Professional and personal development outcomes are crucial to the growth of an individual, both in their career and personal life. By focusing on their development, individuals can acquire new skills and knowledge, broaden their perspectives, and improve their overall performance. This can lead to increased job satisfaction, higher levels of motivation, and a stronger sense of purpose. Furthermore, personal development can also help individuals to cultivate positive relationships, enhance their mental and emotional well-being, and achieve greater levels of fulfilment in life. Therefore, it is important for individuals to invest time and effort into their professional and personal development in order to achieve their full potential and lead a fulfilling life.
