為休斯敦市长特纳送行


即将於年底任满八年的休斯敦市长特纳, 将於七月参加我们為他举办的欢送会, 表达我们对他在过去两任八年所做之贡献。


休斯敦已成為全美第四大城, 是佔地面稹最大的城市, 也是全美族裔最多之大城, 其中除了白人、非裔、拉丁裔及华亚裔之外, 近年来成為外来人口增加最多之城市。


这位非裔毕业於哈佛之市长曾经在德州州议员参政多年, 八年前当他就任之初 ,就和华亚裔关係融洽。 就在年前, 一座佔地数十亩之艾利芙社区中心大厦刚刚啟用, 这座现代化建筑由市政府斥资五千八百万兴建而成, 是他任内对我们国际区最大最佳之礼物, 每年由我们主办之农暦新年游园会他从未缺席。


特纳市长是全部美非裔𠍇出政治领袖, 他未来如何继续政治生涯, 尚未明朗 ,不过拜登总统之民主党定会重用他的长才。


虽然他即将离职 ,但是我们和他的情谊将是永远的挈友 ,我们也籍此表示感激和怀念之情。

Sending Off Houston's Mayor Turner 


Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner will be leaving office at the end of this year. We are hosting a farewell party in my house to express our sincere  appreciation for his service. 


Houston is the fourth largest city in the United States and the largest city with the most ethnic minorities in the United States. Also, Houston is the city with the most rapidly increasing population in the nation. 


The African-American mayor was a Harvard graduate who served in the Texas state legislature for many years. Ever since he took over the mayoral position he had a very good relationship with the Asian community. Just a few month ago the very modern Alief Community Center opened up in the International District at the intersection of Kirkwood and Bellaire Blvd. The center was built by the City of Houston and cost more than $58 million dollars which was money spent especially in our district. 


We can remember that Mayor Turner was never absent at our annual Lunar celebrations and that showed us his sincere support for our community. Although he is about to leave his post, our friendship with him will last forever.
