International Toast Thursday 15 Nov 2018
This weekend APEC Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders are meeting in Port Moresby PNG (our nearest neighbour).
The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) is a regional economic forum established in 1989 to leverage the growing interdependence of the Asia-Pacific. APEC's 21 members aim to create greater prosperity for the people of the region by promoting balanced, inclusive, sustainable, innovative and secure growth and by accelerating regional economic integration.
The international toast this evening is to the Rotary Club of Port Moresby in District 9600. Tuesday 12 noon for 12.15pm, Park Royal Hotel |
In 1957, Mike Woods, a former member of the Rotary Club of Bournemouth in the UK, arrived in Port Moresby and decided that it was time to start Rotary in Papua New Guinea.
The Rotary Club of Port Moresby was chartered on 19 September 1957.
The 2018 Golf raised close to K118,000 (A$60,000) and this would not have been possible if not of the team effort of the Rotary members and the Companies who donate and sponsor each year.
Please join me in toasting the Rotary Club of Port Moresby PNG in our District 9600
