English: I'm not going to comment on fly-by partisan comments, because I want this to be a united debate with a united message. I'm happy if we want to have a partisan debate on issues to partake in on that basis but not this debate. In south Wales KIRAN want to promote knowledge and mutual understanding between different racial groups and generate activities to foster understanding between people from diverse backgrounds with the objective of encouraging acceptance of social diversities and facilitating meaningful engagement between members from different communities. Last May, I had a meeting in the Assembly with the Welsh Refugee Council, the North Wales Association for Multicultural Integration and the personal support service CAIS, to talk about how we can work in partnership to break down barriers and increase understanding of each other's cultures. We must recognise the vital work being carried out by front-line community and third sector organisations to promote multicultural integration in Wales. As the chair and founder of NWAMI, Dr Sibani Roy, has stated, 'Some of the people think that when you talk about integration you mean assimilation. We have to explain to people that integration is not assimilation. We have to respect the law and culture of the land.' She added, 'What we need to do is educate people and say, "We're all human beings, we're friendly and we should try to understand each other's cultures." When they learn about other cultures, then they will possibly become friendly. Change will happen slowly, but tit for tat is not the way to change people. By talking to people and educating people, eventually by convincing them that human beings are not all bad.' She said, 'It doesn't matter. It's individuals and that is what I've always believed myself that we treat people as individuals. It doesn't matter what the background is, their faith or colour.' In terms of Brexit, when people voted to leave the EU, they were voting for control not extremism. However, as the Minister referred to, some extremists have sought to hijack Brexit for their own unsavoury ends. But at this critical time we must remember that this is not about a soft Brexit or a hard Brexit, but an open Brexit that ensures that the UK is turned outwards and is more engaged with the world than ever before. We must build a cohesive community and integrated society in Wales in this century. To achieve this, we need to promote an understanding and respect of Wales's diverse cultures through cultural engagement and interaction, education and training. We therefore support the call for a cross-party Welsh declaration embodying the principles of the UN International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, and, as I have said many times, this is about celebrating our glorious diversity together. Diolch yn fawr.
Welsh: Nid wyf yn mynd i wneud sylwadau am sylwadau pleidiol digyswllt, gan fy mod i eisiau i hon fod yn ddadl unedig gyda neges unedig. Rwy'n hapus os ydym ni eisiau cael dadl bleidiol ar faterion i gymryd rhan ynddi ar y sail honno ond nid y ddadl hon. Yn y de, mae KIRAN eisiau hyrwyddo gwybodaeth a chyd-ddealltwriaeth rhwng gwahanol grwpiau hil a chynhyrchu gweithgareddau i feithrin dealltwriaeth rhwng pobl o gefndiroedd amrywiol gyda'r amcan o annog goddefgarwch o amrywiaeth gymdeithasol a hwyluso ymgysylltu ystyrlon rhwng aelodau o wahanol gymunedau. Fis Mai diwethaf, cefais gyfarfod yn y Cynulliad gyda Chyngor Ffoaduriaid Cymru, Cymdeithas Integreiddio Amlddiwylliannol Gogledd Cymru a'r gwasanaeth cymorth personol CAIS, i drafod sut y gallwn ni gydweithio i chwalu rhwystrau a chynyddu dealltwriaeth o ddiwylliannau ein gilydd. Mae'n rhaid inni gydnabod y gwaith hanfodol sy'n cael ei wneud gan fudiadau rheng flaen yn y gymuned a'r trydydd sector i hybu integreiddio amlddiwylliannol yng Nghymru. Fel y dywedodd Cadeirydd a sylfaenydd NWAMI, Dr Sibani Roy, Mae rhai o'r bobl yn meddwl, wrth sôn am integreiddio, eich bod yn golygu cymathu. Rhaid inni egluro wrth bobl nad cymathu yw integreiddio. Mae'n rhaid i ni barchu cyfraith a diwylliant y wlad. Ychwanegodd: Yr hyn sydd angen i ni ei wneud yw addysgu pobl a dweud, "Rydym ni i gyd yn fodau dynol, rydym ni'n gyfeillgar ac fe ddylem ni geisio deall diwylliannau ein gilydd." Pan fyddan nhw'n dysgu am ddiwylliannau eraill, yna mae'n bosib y byddan nhw'n datblygu cyfeillgarwch. Bydd newid yn digwydd yn araf, ond nid llygad am lygad yw'r ffordd i newid pobl. Drwy siarad â phobl ac addysgu pobl, yn y pen draw drwy eu hargyhoeddi nad yw bodau dynol yn ddrwg i gyd. Dywedodd hi: Does dim ots. Mae a wnelo hyn ag unigolion a dyna'r hyn yr wyf wedi ei gredu fy hun erioed, ein bod yn trin pobl fel unigolion. Does dim ots beth yw'r cefndir, eu ffydd na'u lliw. O ran Brexit, pan bleidleisiodd pobl i adael yr UE, roedden nhw'n pleidleisio dros reoli ac nid eithafiaeth. Fodd bynnag, fel y cyfeiriodd y Gweinidog ato, mae rhai eithafwyr wedi ceisio herwgipio Brexit at eu dibenion annymunol eu hunain. Ond ar yr adeg dyngedfennol hon mae'n rhaid i ni gofio nad yw hyn ynglŷn â Brexit meddal na Brexit caled, ond Brexit agored sy'n sicrhau bod y DU yn dod yn eangfrydig a'i bod yn ymgysylltu mwy â'r byd nag erioed o'r blaen. Rhaid i ni adeiladu cymdeithas gymunedol ac integredig gydlynus yng Nghymru yn y ganrif hon. Er mwyn cyflawni hyn, mae angen i ni hybu dealltwriaeth a pharch o ddiwylliannau amrywiol Cymru drwy ymgysylltu a rhyngweithio diwylliannol, addysg a hyfforddiant. Rydym ni felly'n cefnogi'r alwad am ddatganiad trawsbleidiol yng Nghymru sy'n ymgorffori egwyddorion Confensiwn Rhyngwladol y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Ddileu Pob Math o Wahaniaethu Hiliol, ac, fel y dywedais sawl gwaith, mae hyn yn ymwneud â dathlu ein hamrywiaeth odidog gyda'n gilydd. Diolch yn fawr.
