How close to eradicating polio?

We are very CLOSE. All that is needed is...YOU.

We got to be at Bangkok...together!

Here's a passionate appeal from PDG Kawal Bedi, Chairperson of District 3080 Bangkok Convention Promotion Committee.  Let's register and get your tickets booked before it is too late.  This is one of a life-time opportunity to have a RI Convention so close to home, with less than 5 hour flight and one of the lowest registration fee ever.

Peace Through Service

The theme for the Rotary Year 2012-13 announced by the incoming President of Rotary International, Sakuji Tanaka, unveiled at the International Assembly, is :

“PEACE THROUGH SERVICE”

Peace, in all of the ways that we can understand it, is a real goal and a realistic goal for Rotary. Peace is not something that can only be achieved through agreements, by governments, or through heroic struggles. It is something that we can find and that we can achieve, every day and in many simple ways.

No definition is right, and no definition is wrong,
 However we use the word, this is what peace means for us

“In Rotary, our business is not profit. Our business is peace,” . “Our reward is not financial, but the happiness and satisfaction of seeing a better, more peaceful world, one that we have achieved through our own efforts.”
Tanaka will ask Rotarians to focus their energy on supporting the three priorities of the RI Strategic Plan , he said. He added that he will ask the incoming leaders to promote three Rotary peace forums, to be held in Hiroshima, Japan; Berlin; and Honolulu, Hawaii, USA.
