Rotary Club of Taipei’s 75th Charter Anniversary

Welcome dinner by sister club RC Taipei. Other RCM sister clubs showed up: RC Singapore and RC Bangkok. We met our counterparts from RC Tai Po, RC Kuala Lumpur, RC Penang, RC Kota Kinabalu, RC Kyoto and RC Yokohama. It was a typical Rotarian dinner-fellowship full of banter, good cheer and unabashed singing! We sang “Pasko na Sinta ko” led by Nick Locsin plus John Tan, Noy Benedicto, Ferdie Co and yours truly. - Pres. Raffy Alunan

On behalf of RC Manila, Pres. Raffy Alunan offered RC Taiwan Pres. Shirley Ting a banner of RCM and gifts from RCM.
