社評1108國際貿易中心迎來21 歲生日

國際貿易中心迎來21 歲生日

整整二十一年之時光 ，我們在美國休斯敦成立了國際貿易中心， 作為我們對這塊土地回饋的實際行動。

我經常在各種大小塲所表達美國這𠆤移民國家給予我們極大之機會，在此落葉生根 ，來到這裡的世界移民 ，聘籍一雙勤勞之手創造了多少傲人之成功故事。

多年來， 我們在媒體事業之支𣛟下， 希望走出多元族裔之大道 ，創建國際社區之氛圍， 為休斯敦之發展走出一條新的道路。

二十年前由德州議會在州議員武休伯之支持下通過成立休斯敦國際行政區， 包括十三英里之地區近十三萬人口， 由社區領袖之共有努力 ，多年來國際區已經成為休斯敦成功之經濟模範，百利大道上之車水馬龍 ，商場上之人頭鑽動 ，是經濟繁榮之表現。

國際貿易中心和國際區代表了我們對美國社會之貢獻 ，但是我們將繼續努力， 社區之發展永無止境。

慶祝中心之二十一週年大會定於十一月十七日下午六時在蓋洛里亞大酒店舉行， 屆時將由德州土地能源局長伯尼漢博士為主旨演講人， 希望大家共同參與和支持， 並將在大會上頒發獎學金及社會精英獎， 為清寒學子們助上一臂之力。

Houston International Trade Center Celebrates Its 21st Anniversary

ITC has been here for twenty-one years now. We established this non-profit organization as a practical action in order to give back to our community and to this land. 

I often express to our friends that this great nation has given us the great opportunity to take root here and by using our own pair of hard-working hands, we have created many successful and proud stories. 

Twenty years ago with a bill initiated by State Representative Hubert Vo, the Texas Legislature passed a bill to establish the International

Management District with a budget of $1.7 million dollars for an area that includes a population of 130,000 and covers thirteen square miles. Over the years, we tried diligently to manage our safety issue and beautify the area. Finally, we have made the International Management District into a successful community role model for the entire city. 

With the International Trade Center  being involved for many years in so many local and international activities, we are going to sponsor an ITC Gala on November 17, 2023, at the Houston Galleria Oaks Hotel. We hope that you can come and join us to celebrate and support the ITC and meet the community leaders we work with and help us continue to promote our many educational and cultural events.
