筹措休斯敦外交领事团之「圆桌论坛」


德州休斯敦驻有九十八个国家的外交领事代表, 其中有半数以上是许多国家任命的名誉总领事或代表, 但是他们仍然负有许多和当地政商及民间交流之重任。


上週五我们应邀参加了由大休斯敦商会主办的德州休斯敦大商会主办的大休斯敦経济展望午餐会, 我和来自土耳其 、挪威、 斯兰卡、几内亚等国之总领事参加午餐会, 该会会长哈威在午餐会上首先感谢各国总领事在促进和大休斯敦文化経贸之巨大贡献, 其中进出口名列前茅的国家包括中国大陆、 墨西哥 、巴西 、韩国 、印度、荷兰、 德国、 日本 、英国、 哥伦比亚、意大利、 新加坡、 台湾等, 其中亚洲以百分之三十五佔全球第一名 ,其次是欧洲及中南美洲 ,非洲只佔百分之一点六而敬陪末座。


為了支持各国总领事在文化、 贸易之宣传交流, 美南新闻集团将在所属之美南环球剧坊為各国总领事举办现场电视网路直播”外交圆桌论坛“, 可以透过YouTube 脸书平台现场直播和各国外交文化经贸部长对话, 并在现场邀集有意到该国去投资之各界人士作现场立即交流 ,以了解各项投资投资事项之推动, 并且在当天在英文美南日报刊载参加国家之介绍专页。


虽然世界局势动盪不安 ,疫情未平 ,又传出猴天花症状 ,实在令人担忧 ,但是, 休斯敦近月来之各项国际贸易不但已经回到疫前水平, 而且还在不断增长。


在我出任几内亚驻休斯敦名誉总领事之后 ,原本早己筹划访问非洲, 但是二年多之疫情一直延宕下来, 希望年底前仍然可以成行, 也希望有意前往投资、 观光之各界人士踊跃报名参加, 欢接下一轮非洲大陆経济之起飞。




  • Houston “Diplomats Round Table”

    There are ninety-eight countries with representative consulates in the Greater Houston 

    area. More than half of them are honorary posts, appointed by different countries. They 

    all have the very important duty of communicating with local businessmen and 

    politicians.

    Last Friday, we were invited by the Greater Houston Partnership to join the “State of 

    Houston’s Global Economy” luncheon. Many general consuls from Turkey, Norway, 

    India and Canada were in attendance. President Harvey thanked all of the consuls general

    for promoting culture and making great contributions to trade and to the economy. 

    According to the statistics, the top countries doing business in the Houston area are 

    China, Mexico, Brazil, South Korea, India, The Netherlands, Germany, Japan, the United

    Kingdom, Colombia, Italy, Singapore and Taiwan. Asia is on the top of the list with 35%,

    followed by Europe and Central and South America. Africa has only 1.6 %.

    In order to promote international trade and culture, Southern News Group will sponsor a 

    live program, the “Diplomats Round Table,” in our international studio. Through our live 

    streaming, we will invite the consuls general of different countries to be our guests to 

    meet investors in our studio and their countries’ government officials can answer all 

    questions on the live LED screen. We are also going to publish a full page introduction of

    each country in our Southern Daily News newspaper.

    Although the world situation is turbulent, the epidemic has not calmed down and the 

    monkey smallpox symptoms are now really worrying those businesses in international 

    trade. In Houston, we are not only returning to pre-epidemic levels, but the numbers have

    also been growing.
