庆祝几内亚国庆日
旅居在德州地区的几内亚侨民领袖今午前来会面商讨如何庆祝几内亚共和国国庆日, 最终决定在十月七日推出整天之活动 ,包括白天的郊游及晚上的娱乐表演。
居住在德州三大城市之几内亚裔侨民大约只有千餘人, 他们多半是来美留学后成為专业人士, 并且有许多从事中小企业并卓有所成。
在我过去担任几内亚驻德州名誉总领事迄今, 早在年前曾筹组投资考察团前往西非访问, 但因疫情关係一直延宕, 上月前往华府和新任几内亚大使商议决定今年底前成行。
几内亚係西非较落后之地区, 但是该国矿產丰富, 濒临大海,非常有开拓观光之条件。
对於担任这项外交任务, 我感到十分荣幸, 希望对几内亚之经济发展尽份力量。
Celebrating The Republic of Guinea’s National Day
We had a meeting with the Guinea community leaders in our office yesterday to discuss how to celebrate their National Day. They finally decided to launch an all day of activities on October 7, including a day time picnic and an evening of entertainment.
There are only about one thousand Guineans living in the Texas area. Most of them came to America to study, and later most of them became professionals and businessmen.
Since I serve as the Honorary Consul of Guinea in Houston, we have been planning to organize a trade mission to visit Guinea. But because of pandemic, we had to cancel the trip. Last month when I visited the new Guinea Ambassador in Washington, DC, we decided to visit Guinea at the end of this year.
Guinea is a country that is rich with minerals and also has a great opportunity to develop their tourism industry.
I feel very honored to take this mission and I will do my best to help the economic development of Guinea.
