April 2011

With 568 registered delegates including Anns of Rotarians, we have made a record of sorts as far as attendance for the recently concluded DISCON dubbed as “Alegria Na Zamboanga” to a climactic end. Under the leadership of Gov. James Makasiar, we saw a deluge of VIP’s from the RI President’s Representative in the person of PDG Frederick Lin and his lovely Lady Ann Jane to various PDG’s led by PCRG Chair Jaime Dee, PDG Chick and Nannette, PDG Toto Locsin, PDG Dave Villanueva, PDG Charles Reith, PDG Tony Veloso, PDG Manny Tatel, PDG Emma Nava, PDG Eric Laviña (+) and IPDG Edgar SY.

Most notably present was PDG Hea Kon Oh, of Nam Seong Nam, District 3600 who came all the way from South Korea to grace the occasion with three PPs in the person of PP Kim Sung Oh, PP Kim Chul Soo, and PP Young Gil Lee. As our sister club of the Rotary Club of Zamboanga City West, Rotary Club of Nam Seong Nam turned over on the said occasion 10 brand new computer sets for distribution including 300 pcs. of clothing materials. Another sister club, the Rotary Club of Manila Metro was on hand to lend support for the occasion was led by Pres. George Chong, IPP Peter Ngo, PP Manny Wong and PP George Ng.

We would like to take time out in mentioning the clubs with the most number of delegates who gave their support and presence in making the DISCON event a very memorable one for Gov James and Lady Tess and of course not discounting the Rotarians from Zamboanga who took time out in making the delegates comfortable in their brief stay with us. First in the list is led by Rotary Club of Basilan with (24) twenty four delegates. A close second is Rotary Club of Bacolod North with (21) twenty one delegates and thirdly, to Rotary Club of Silay and to Rotary Club of Bacolod Central with (15) fifteen delegates. Not discounting the local delegates from the city led by Rotary Club of Zamboanga City West with (81) eighty one participants and the Rotary Club of Zamboanga City with (46) forty six in attendance. To all the various club under District 3850, we would like to thank you for making the DISCON 2011 a very successful affair to remember. To all the awardees for the most outstanding and numerous awards, may you continue your valued contribution to your respective communities with much “gusto” in the future.
