Ministering to Malaysia<br />
> I’m most pleased that the IHRSA Asia Pacific Forum was<br />
a great success and that your delegates enjoyed their time in<br />
Malaysia. I hope the National Fitness Council and IHRSA can<br />
continue to build on a strong foundation and cooperate on a<br />
variety of initiatives and programs. IHRSA’s tagline, “Success<br />
by Association,” is indeed very apt. My ministry officers will<br />
maintain an open line of communication with you. —|<br />

> Just a quick note to say congratulations to IHRSA on a very<br />
well organized and successful European Congress (despite<br />
having to deal with the French transit strikes!). The congress<br />
was very inspiring for me; I made some very good work contacts<br />
and reconnected with old friends!<br />
Next up, I’m really looking forward to presenting at the convention<br />
in San Diego! —|<br />

Arthur Appreciated<br />
| Letters |<br />
> The tribute to Arthur Jones in the December issue (see “An<br />
Appreciation: Arthur Jones,” pg. 42) was interesting. I’d just like<br />
to add that, more than anyone, he was responsible for starting<br />
the fitness revolution that’s now lasted for several decades.<br />
He simply made it “cool” to work out.<br />
By the way, I’m the guy with the beard in the photos of Arthur<br />
that accompanied the article. —|<br />

Paris to Portugal<br />
> It was a pleasure to attend the extraordinary European<br />
Congress in Paris. For my very first time participating in<br />
this event, it couldn’t have been better. Thank you!<br />
A special word on the importance of the panelists invited:<br />
I hope that, next year, the interest of these individuals stays as<br />
high as it was in Paris. I’m looking forward to seeing you next<br />
year in my hometown. —|<br />
