With
hope and humility, I embrace the
privilege to serve as 2006-2008
president of the Filipino American
League of Engineers and Architects
(FALEA). This year has been a
significant year for FALEA as it
coincides with the year long
Filipino Centennial Celebration
commemorating the first Filipino
oversees workers in Hawaii.
I
would like to commend the founders
of FALEA, for without them we have
not achieved what we are now. For
the past Presidents, Officers and
Board of Directors, many thanks to
all of them for the continued
support and dedication to the
organization. The foundation of
the projects that we have now can
be traced from them, who have made
it possible for us to carry out
these tasks.
For
the newly installed officers and
directors, congratulations. Please
know that each of you deserve and
have my highest respect for
accepting the challenges ahead.
There is much work ahead of us and
many more challenges to face, but
by working together with courtesy
and respect, we can all achieve.
The challenges we face are bigger
than any of us can overcome
individually, but there are no
challenges we cannot overcome
together.
The
challenges for us are to build
more members participation;
increase our membership; and bring
more technical people to the
organization. Whether you are
President of a company or a mere
worker like me, whether you work
in a small or big company, whether
you are independent or part of a
franchise, we need you to be in
tune with our organization. It is
time for everyone – it’s time
for you to get involved. As Henry
Ford said, “Coming together is a
beginning; keeping together is
progress, working together is
success”.
Mabuhay and
God Bless,
Nap Agraan
FALEA PRESIDENT
