Vocational Service - Rtn Steve Lau<br />

As <strong>the</strong> rotary term <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice draws to an end in this centennial<br />

year, I would like to thank our President Hock Bee and my<br />

fellow board members for <strong>the</strong>ir support and assistance in<br />

carrying out my duties. More importantly, I would like to<br />

thank all my committee members who have lent a hand and<br />

supported all my projects through out <strong>the</strong> year. I really<br />

appreciate that!<br />

I thought my year will be doomed when my 1st committee<br />

meeting was only attended by one Rotarian and <strong>the</strong><br />

President.<br />

I think <strong>the</strong> meetings held immediately after lunch was a good<br />

decision and I truly believe that members who attended <strong>the</strong><br />

meetings were not just trying to make up but contributed <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

ideas and advice as well.<br />

The 4 Way Test should be our guiding principle! I sincerely hope<br />

that you will continue to support me in my fellowship portfolio<br />

next year.<br />

Yours in <strong>Rotary</strong>,<br />

Rtn Steve Lau<br />

Vocational Service Director<br />

From The Desktop Of A Rotarian<br />

Installation Nite... yes its that time <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year where <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Rotary</strong> wheel in all RCs all over <strong>the</strong> world hold <strong>the</strong>ir annual<br />

proceedings to rotate <strong>the</strong>ir <strong>of</strong>fice bearers... to say goodbye to<br />

<strong>the</strong> incumbents... and Welcome a “fresh” set trusting that<br />

<strong>the</strong> new will bring fresh ideas to <strong>the</strong>m.<br />

That’s <strong>the</strong> culture <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotary</strong>... as <strong>the</strong> wheel turns each year,<br />

everyone is given a chance to serve, to lead, contribute and<br />

be a Rotarian. It also reminds those who were in <strong>of</strong>fice that,<br />

upon handing over <strong>the</strong> jewels <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice, rejoin to <strong>the</strong> ordinary<br />

world <strong>of</strong> Rotarians AND continue to serve <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong>re.<br />

Alas, many who have ascended <strong>the</strong> summit, takes a “brea<strong>the</strong>r”<br />

and never came back... or we lose <strong>the</strong>m to <strong>the</strong> district.<br />

But my main point is that <strong>the</strong> WHEEL turns... and if you have<br />

been taking a well earn rest (or have been a RINO)... this is <strong>the</strong><br />

time to come in... take on a task (no matter how simple) AND<br />

SERVE. A new ROTARY YEAR is dawning... be part <strong>of</strong> it. Don’t<br />

worry that you may make errors... a new year and every one is<br />

new to <strong>the</strong>ir duties... just apply <strong>the</strong> 4 WAY TEST and you’ll be<br />

fine.<br />
