I am so grateful that we are here in the final month of this Rotary Year. It is a memorable year for all of us. Despite the difficulties and challenging circumstances, all District Team members and committees performed and served the District with full strength and passion. All club Presidents lead their clubs with flying colours to serve the community.

We have made many things that seemed impossible, possible despite the uncertainties. All of us have the same goal: Together, we serve D3450 and our community.

We engaged our Future Leaders and we plan for several years. We prepare for the future and create a long term strategic plan for our District. We nurture our young leaders and we welcome more to join us to serve our District.

We have invited our Rotaract leaders to join District Committees and various events. We engage them at an earlier stage. We listen to their opinions and make decisions together. This year we had a District Conference together our Rotaract. It was an ideal and nice occasion for us to mingle and get to know more of our new generation.

Interota 2020 was successfully held with 1800 registrants from 91 countries. An enormous amount of effort was put into this service marathon having 150 volunteers, performing 13 community services partnering with 9 NGOs and accumulated a total of 439 hours of services together.

This year’s theme of our Conference was Health, Peace and Support Environment.

Thanks to the Dean of Medical Faculty of CUHK; Prof. Francis Chan, SBS, JP, in being our Guest of Honour to share about The Future Development of Health Professionals in Hong Kong & The Greater Bay Area.

Despite the pandemic, D3450 achieved a lot and have been very active. I am proud to announce the net membership growth is 140 with 3 new clubs, one satellite club formed, 9 new Rotaract Clubs and 11 new Interact Clubs chartered. We expanded our reach to primary schools program and there will be Junioract Clubs specially for Primary School students.

There are many more achievements and most important of all, we care about the experience of our Rotarian, Rotaractor and beneficiaries.

Together, we take action, to create lasting change across the globe, in our community and in ourselves.

The breakout sessions were welcomed by all, we exchanged ideas about Peace, Health, Environment, Youth and Memberships.

Presidents Performance (pre-recordings) was shown at District Governor Dinner. We celebrated the 90th Year of Rotary service in Hong Kong. We had good fellowship with all Rotarian.

我很感恩與各人同行至本扶輪年度的最後一個月。這是我們所有人值得紀念的一年，儘管面臨困難和挑戰，所有地區團隊成員和委員們都全力以赴去服務，而各社長亦表現出色，帶領他們社員為社區服務。

儘管存在不確定性，但我們仍使許多事情變成有可能，而我們所有人都有一個共同的目標：我們一起為國際扶輪3450 區和我們的社區服務。

我們結連侯任的地區領袖，一起計劃將來，為我們的地區製定了長期戰略規劃。另外，我們定意培養年輕領袖，歡迎更多年輕人加入地區服務。

我們已邀請扶青社領袖加入本區領導委員會和各種活動，我們希望盡早與他們進行接觸，聽取他們的意見並共同做出決定。今年我們與扶青社一起舉辦了地區會議，這將是我們與新一代交流的好機會。

Interota 2020 已成功舉行，超過來自 91 個國家的 1800 名參加者，另外有150 名志願者參加服務馬拉松，與 9 個非政府組織合作進行了 13 項社區服務，服務時數為439 小時。

國際扶輪3450地區年會

今年大會主題是健康、和平和支持環保。

感謝中大醫學院院長Francis Chan 教授, SBS, JP 作為主講嘉賓，分享香港及大灣區醫護專業人士的未來發展。

儘管新冠疫情大流行，3450地區還是取得了很多成就：會員人數增加140 人、成立了新社3 個、衛星社 1 個、扶青社 9 個和 扶少社 11 個。另外，我們將擴展扶輪社務至小學，很快將有專門為小學生開設的 Junioract 社出現。

除了成就，更重要的是我們關心我們的扶輪社、扶青社和受益人的經歷。

我們一起採取行動，在全球、社區和我們自身上創造及帶來持久的變化。

在所有人歡迎的分組討論會中，我們就在和平、健康、環境、青年和會員事務問題作深入交流。

在總監晚宴上展示了社長們預錄表演，而我們慶祝扶輪國際服務香港90 週年有多，而所有扶輪社友都有著美好團契交誼的時刻。

3450地區扶輪暨扶青會議

DRR Alan Yip 先作一個有關扶青社年度報告，地區扶青社為視障人士提供分四個階段服務，他們還創作了一首有關視障人士非常好聽的歌曲，並與視障人士一起演唱。

今年，扶青社領袖受邀加入扶輪地區委員會，這些年輕領袖們可以更了解扶輪社，而扶輪社友也可以從他們身上學習一些創新理念。衷心感謝 DRR Alan 和您的團隊一年來的美好服務！

Interota 2020 已成功舉辦，超過來自 91 個國家的 1800 名參加者，另外150 名志願者參加服務馬拉松，與 9 個非政府組織合作進行了 13 項社區服務，服務時數為439 小時，扶青們表現實在太出色了！感謝 Lok Chi 主席和團隊努力付出。

感謝 作為RIPPR的PDG Peter Wan 和 Rita 女士與我們共聚兩天，並感謝 PDG Peter分享有關全球國際扶輪社最新狀況及他的智慧和識見。

感謝攝影記者 Nicole Tung 分享她在戰區展示令人驚嘆有關難民和暴力侵害婦女行為的照片，她亦分享她在推動和平方面的經驗和看法。

扶輪和扶青社友在公開論壇互動，增進彼此了解，這也成為我們未來合作的契機。

我們在扶輪基金會午餐會上表彰了所有慷慨的捐助者。感謝所有捐助者：AKS、Major Donors、Paul Harris Fellows、Benefactors 和Bequest Society Members。今年我們有新增19 個100% PHF社、527 PHF社友 、14 個Benefactors 、87 個 EREY社，我們亦為 EndPolio 基金捐獻 $88,143 美元。再次感謝所有為世界做好事的慷慨捐助者！

POA競賽頒獎

我們頒發獎品給首五位獲獎者，而獲獎照片都能真實地展示扶輪社多樣性服務！

當天會議下午的重頭戲就是未來領導人分享會。DGE Keith、DGN Norman、DGND Andy 和 DRRE Luffy 接受了 PDG Ada 和 PDRR Jessica Glad 的訪問，有幸我們得到這些充滿熱誠的未來領導者繼續為 3450 地區服務。

感謝 Rachel 為社友配偶團隊一起組織配偶活動，其中有一項“關愛青年服務計劃”，就是鼓勵基層家庭的學生每天跑步或步行兩週，並於大會中舉行頒獎典禮。感謝贊助商 PDG BY、DGND Andy Li、P Tomas和 PP Conrad。

感謝籌委主席Cassy及團隊在疫情和難以想像的困難中努力籌辦，使到這個年度會議完滿舉行。
