Dear 2015-16 ‘Service Above Self’ Team and Dignitary Rotarians,
On July 1st, the beginning of the Rotary year that spans the period from July 1st to June 30th of the following year, about 34,000 Rotary clubs from over 530 districts around the world lifted the curtain for the 2015-16 RI’s inauguration under the theme “Be a Gift to the World”.
I attended the International Assembly held in San Diego in January of this year. After returning to Taiwan, I sorted and compiled the notes and reported the 2015-16 annual theme and direction to the former governors. Closely following that were the District Team Training Seminar, Presidents-Elect Training Seminar, District Training Assembly, Secretary Training Seminar and Rotary Foundation Seminar, as well as the Global Grant Practice Workshop and the Club Trainer Training Seminar which held for the first time for District 3480, in addition to the Rotary Foundation Grant Seminar held last December. After being “baptized” by nearly ten Rotary skill events prior to the inauguration, I believe the team is ready to serve.
This year, the president of Rotary International is K.R. Ravindram from Sri Lanka, whose theme is “Be a Gift to the World”. It means that people are born with the gift of life. We are looked after and educated during the process of growth. People only have the “right of use”, not “to own”. As Rotarians, how we can make contributions to, and improve, the community and the world, and guide us to live a rich and meaningful
