Our mutual cooperation and development between the officials and people will help bring us a peaceful, happy, and healthy community!
By Mark Denton, Jessie Walsh, Cheryl Moss, and Tiffany Chang
***** "Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it because it gives any challenge or any occupation, no matter how frightening or difficult, a new meaning. Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it you can accomplish miracles." ---Og Mandino (1923-1996, Speaker and Author)
One of the main three missions of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) is community service. To participate, initiate, and help promote significant programs have been some of our efforts. The following article was just one of the examples to state that Asians united means Asians power:
