警民同欒 共创美好家园

上週末一场大型震憾之警民同楽晚会在休斯敦林波大酒店举行, 近七百位华亚裔社区人士為了表达对警政人员之谢意, 每年皆依例举行,这项餐会具有非常特殊之意义。

晚会在警察局组成之舞狮团之锣鼓声中掀开序幕, 主持人李雄及陈卓钢向大家表示热烈欢迎, 代理休斯敦警察局局长斯德怀偕同高级警官上台向大家致意，并代表警察局全体同仁表示感谢亚裔社区多年之支持和协助治安工作。赫里斯郡警长根紥拉也在致词中表示他对亚裔社区之设宴款待表示由衷之感谢, 并号召更多之华亚裔青年参加警务工作，为社区治安贡献心力。 

多年来，在大休斯敦地区之警方和我们社区建立了亲切友好之关係, 凡是遇到灾难或治安事件,他们大多能及时援助。但是由於警局人员短缺，治安工作也面临极大挑战。

Asian Community Hosted A Police Appreciation Dinner

Last weekend more than 700 citizens from the community got together at the Lambo Restaurant in Houston and hosted an Appreciation Dinner  to express our sincere gratitude to all our police officers. 

With the sounds of the lion dance group performing for the police department, hosts Kennth Li and Loan Chan extended a warm welcome to everyone. Harris County Sheriff Gonzales and the acting police chief of Houston came to  the stage to greet everyone, and on behalf of all their colleagues at the police stations, expressed their gratitude to the Asian community for their support and assistance in public safety work over the years. 

Sheriff Gonzales also said in his speech that we should urge the young people in the Asian community to join the police force. 

Over the years, we have established a good relationship with the Houston Police Department and still maintain a very friendly relationship. Due to shortages in the city's budget, the department is still facing challenges.
