LET’S WELCOME ARIS, OUR NEW EXECUTIVE SECRETARY!

Ms Amy Sio (right) served our Club until 26 March 2009. She was replaced by Aris Tam, (left) Hon. Treasurer of Rotaract Club of Macau.

That’s why she said what she does in our Club is more or less the same with that in Rotaract Club.

I thank Amy again for lending a hand to our Club and let’s welcome Aris!
