Houston’s Asian American  Pacific Islanders Receive Praise


Today we proudly celebrate “Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.” Community members were publicly praised and awarded an official proclamation from the city at Houston City Hall on Tuesday. 


The words on the proclamation stated that, “The City of Houston recognizes you for your tremendous support and contribution to the community. There is no better time than the Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month to acknowledge that you are a true champion in this great city that we all love. A famous quote goes like this: 'Success doesn’t come  from what you do occasionally, it comes from what you do consistently.' When you take care of your personal needs, you will be rewarded beyond your greatest expectations.' The City of Houston is very proud of you and we salute you on this special day.”


The proclamation was sponsored  by city councilman Michael Kubosh and has been given to people from all walks of life including the areas of media, medcine, restaurants and social work.


Past award recipients have included Hope Clinic, Rogene Calvert, Alice Chan and many business owners.


Mayor Turner also awarded recognitions to many city employees and praised the Asian community for making great contributions to our city.
