Alton Accounts
Dear Members, Supporters, Friends and Well-wishers
The members and your President attended the Korean Day Celebration on Saturday March 27, 2009 from 10.30.am to 5pm, held at the North Shore Event Center in Glenfield, North Shore City, Auckland.
The event was organized by the Korean Society of NZ Inc based in Takapuna, North Shore City, Auckland, NZ.
Thousands of people turned up and were entertained by the Korean dancers, performers, musicians, folk games, sports and martial artists that we have in our great and vibrant North Shore City, Auckland, NZ
The following Ministers and MPs attended and delivered their speeches at the event:
• Right Honorable John Key Prime Minister. Your president managed to talk to him during the tea break and John did comment positively about our Fiji Club of NZ (FCNZ).
• Honorable Pansy Wong Minister of Ethnic Affairs
• Honorable Dr. Wayne Mapp MP for North Shore and Minister of Defense
• Honorable Dr. Jonathan Coleman MP for Northcote and Minister of Immigration and Telecommunications
• Honorable Chris Charter the former Minister of Ethnic Affairs and MP for Te Atatu in Auckland
• Honorable Raymond Huo the Labor Party List MP
• Honorable Melissa Lee the National Party List MP
Other dignitaries and diplomats also attended and delivered their speeches of support and congratulations at the celebration. Also in attendance were some North Shore City Councilors Jan O’ Connors and others.
We all had a wonderful and relaxing time with members, friends and families and indeed a nice way to enjoying an otherwise hectic Saturday.
Fiji Club of NZ (FCNZ) will continue to foster our relationship with the Korean community as our Mission Statement is Bringing the Communities Together.
