The RI Convention in LA was truly an awesome experience for me. To understand the powerful humanitarian outreach of RI, attendance at the annual convention is a "must." And meeing so many Rotarians from so many countries who share the common ideals of Rotary was uplifting and inspiring. Added to all of this was the experience of LA (many thanks to the host organizations) and absolutely stunning entertainment throughout the convention. I have returned to Philadelphia "fired up" and ready to move forward!

This is about my fifth Rotary Convention that i have been previleged to attend since i became a Rotarian. I will say without being immodest that i considered this to be the best so far. The organisers did their best by ensuring nothing was lacking to make Rotarians felt at home, the choice of speakers was very nice and information received will go a long way to reshape rotarians by the time they get to their respective countries. However, i will advise organisers of future conventions to first strive to meet the high record set in L.A. before thinking of beating it. Bravo to the LA convention organisers.

The opening speech of our RI President in the House of Friendship was really a welcoming treat to everyone. Am interested on the subject:Peace and Conflict Studies - Leaders Building Peace. Rotary is such a big happy family! More Power to Rotary! MABUHAY!

I personally feel, every rotarian should try to attend at least one RI Convention for getting a personal touch.
