At this point in time, it is apt to remember the year that is about to pass, look back on our accomplishments, express our appreciation for all the support we received, and recognize the challenges ahead of us.

In the few months since I took over as President of this prestigious Club, I have proven once again that people are indeed our main asset and the key resource in realizing the goals of the Club. My first priority as the President has been to start a dialogue with the Board and the management of ACCI to spearhead a more effective alignment of our resources. With the participation of all concerned, a healthy and open internal discussion allows us to tap our collective knowledge. The “Talakayan with the President” has been very fruitful, and has helped us work on the issues that we have encountered thus far. To all the members and staff, I am very grateful for your unselfish support, constructive input, and genuine enthusiasm. I look forward to your ideas, efforts, and contributions in the days ahead.

Gen. Rodolfo “Rudy” Estrellado (Ret.)
President
