我们是国际大家庭

多位代表华亚及太平洋群岛之代表，週四中午参加了我主持之国际区理事会，由巴基斯坦裔之默罕麦代表向我们简报即将在七月下旬在休斯敦市举办亚裔太平洋岛屿社区年会，届时将有来自全美各地之代表数百人参加，共同讨论大家所关心之各项议程，国际区同时通过捐助一万美元来支持年会。

事实上,今天蒞临的代表都是我们多年之伙伴好友,他们在各行各业都有非常𠎀出之表现 ,最令人感动的是对社区推动各种慈善公益事业也非常努力，如今我们在国际区取得之成就都是大家共同努力之成果。

我们今天非常高兴在这块土地上之耕耘得到社会之认可,千万来自全世界之移民在此落叶生根成為一个国际大家庭。

WE ARE An International Family

A number of AARP representatives attended the monthly IMD meeting chaired by myself at noon on Thursday. Chairman Mohammed briefed us on the upcoming Asian Pacific Islanders Annual Convention in Houston scheduled for late     

July of this year. Hundreds of  representatives from all over the nation will participate in a joint session. Our committee is donating $10,000 dollars to the convention. 

In fact, today's representatives have been our friends and partners for 

the last several years. They have performed very well in all walks of life. The most touching thing is that they have also worked very hard to promote various charitable and public welfare undertakings throughout the whole community. 

Today we are so grateful that our many contributions to this land are being recognized by society. We    are strongly rooted in this great nation and have become a vital   

and important part of the American landscape.
