Rotary International president in Manila
The Rotary club of Manila, the First in Asia, will host a dinner in honor of Rotary International president Barry Rassin and Lady Esther, dubbed “An Evening with Rotary International President Barry Rassin and Lady Esther” tomorrow, 6 p.m. at the Grand Ballroom of Okada Manila in Paranaque City.
Rassin, who assumed the presidency of Rotary International effective July 1, 2018, will be visiting the Philippines on the occasion of the Asia Pacific Regional Rotaract Conference (APRRC) which will be held in Manila. As the first Rotary Club in the Philippines and in Asia, the Rotary Club of Manila assumes its role as the lead club in hosting the dinner which it considers as a milestone event since it occurs on the occasion of the Year of the Centennial of the Rotary Club of Manila and the Rotary movement in the Philippines and in Asia as declared by President Rodrigo Duterte in Proclamation No. 413 issued last Jan. 24.
Rotarians from all over the Philippines are invited and Rotarian attendees will be given the benefit of a rare photo opportunity with Rotary International president Barry Rassin and Lady Esther.
One of the highlights of this event will be the induction of the Inspiring District Governors and the Inspiring Presidents. The club encourages early registration for those attending the dinner as early registrants will be given priority to preferred tables.
Rotarians are urged to get in touch with their respective district governors regarding this event.
Entertainment for the evening will feature renowned singer Dulce, Asia’s Golden Girl Gerphil Flores, Banda Kawayan and show band Sabor Latino.
Registration begins at 4:30 p.m. and attendees are requested to be in dark suit for men and long gown for women.
