回顾与展望 新岁新希望

今天是二0二四年新岁首日 ,世界各大城市的贺年烟火和欢乐之音符冲向云霄, 这份喜悦和欢呼带来了新的一年,但是仍然无法掩盖许多人间的苦难呐喊 。

过去一年来, 休斯敦国际区不过断努力改善区内治安和基建工作, 并得到国会议员格林及芙莱彻之大力协助 ,得到联邦政府之补助将在主要交通干道改建国际区内安全人行道, 继而美化市容。

经过去年六个多月之积极筹备, 由华亚裔、 非裔、 拉丁裔、 欧裔及主流社区共同组成之 [德州族裔文化同盟联合阵线] 正式宣告成立, 并立即募到十二万元基金, 也举办多次群眾大会,公开反对德州议会第147 条法案, 多次在休斯敦纪事报及美南日报刊出整页广告,表达我们的意见, 这个组织今后必然将扮演我们在政治、文化 之主要舞台。

国际贸易中心在成立二十一週年之际 ,举办了盛大年会, 邀集了各界政府、 议会、商业领袖共聚一堂, 德州土地资源局长班尼汉博士、 休斯敦前后任市长惠特迈及特纳、美国国会议员格林希拉积克逊李、 市议员、 州议员四百多位佳宾参加 ,充分显示对华亚裔高度重视。

今年更重要的是我们大力支持的德州参议员惠特迈高票当选休斯敦市市长, 我们将会有更多机会参与市政之建设和建言。

回顾过去算是丰收之一年,  国际社区之领袖和代表已经组成了一个坚强之团队来迎接未来新的挑战, 并将深入社区, 在新市长之领导下,為休斯敦全市之观光、文化、经济及国际关係作出贡献。



Past Year Review And Outlook With New Hope For The New Year


Today is the first day of the new year of 2024. Fireworks and music of joy in all the major cities around the world have rushed to the sky. The joy and cheers bring in the new year, but still cannot replace or end all of the suffering of so many people. 


Over the past year, the Houston International District has made 

great strides of progress towards improving public safety and infrastructure, efforts which have now received assistance 

from Congressman Al Green and Congresswoman Fletcher with the approval of federal grants to rebuild the sidewalks in our district. 


After six months of active preparation, last year the Texas Multicultural Advocacy Coalition, which is composed of Asian, African, Latino, European and mainstream communities, was officially established and immediately raised funds totaling U.S. $120,000.00. Our main goal will be to participate in the political and cultural activities of our community in the future. 


Just past November, the International Trade Center hosted the 21th Annual ITC Gala in Houston, Texas. More than 400 guests attended the event which was attended by many political leaders including Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner and new Mayor John Whitmire, U.S. Congressman Al Green, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee and many diplomatic representatives of several foreign countries. 


What’s more important was that our friend John Whitmire was elected as the new mayor of the City of Houston.


Looking forward to the future, we are here with a very strong Houston international coalition and ready to serve our city and community.
