It’s been a very long weekend. We are filled with love. Thank you for giving us your time that we may see the world of travel in a different perspective for forefathers, family and friends, a day to remember our depart- ed and the good Christians who have long been gone. To mark this day, we have the honor and pleasure to have with us a great friend, a man of conviction, a man of great knowledge, a friend who is always there for anyone who needs his help. We thank him for the help he gave us in our endeavors in Marawi. Thank you for giving us your time that we may see the world of travel in a different perspective. I also called on all members of the Rotary Club of Manila to step forward and help your club in its appointed leadership to The Rotary Foundation Gala Night celebration. Because of the tre- mendous success of our gala night in the centennial celebration, District Governor Liza Elorde has chosen our club and specifi- cally, Vice President Hermie Esguerra, to lead this great event this year. This is truly a great honor. Let us all be there to support Hermie! Let us all be there to support our club. This will show the true colors of our club’s perceived and real leadership in the Rotary movement. I call on every member to get a half page in our souvenir program for just Php 5,000 showing a greeting or a picture of their family or a short message just to show support to Hermie and our club. Please do this. Your Chair, Jimmie, has lined up some very good speakers for up- coming meetings. We have on November 14, 2019, Department of Agriculture Secretary William Dar, courtesy of Raffy Alunan and on November 21, 2019, University of the Philippines President Atty. Danny Concepcion, compliments of our UP members. I rec- ommend that I chair and the UP alumni in our club organize a great meeting for this day.
