Summerlin -- the famous and modern community in Nevada, U. S. A.
By PAI of WBTI*1

During the past eleven years, Summerlin has been the fastest growing Master Planned Community in the country. Located along the western rim of the Las Vegas valley, this community offers a unique lifestyle to its residents. Surrounded by the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Summerlin consists of several villages of residential properties, schools cultural centers, shopping, parks, trails, professional and medical facilities and golf courses. More than one-third of Summerlin's acreage is designated as open space, which includes parks, trails, golf courses and nature trails. Ours in Summerlin is something good for many people!

"The enormous Summerlin community is the most celebrated development in the northwest region of Las Vegas. In 1999, Summerlin let the country in new home sales among mater-planned communities with 2,281 homes sold, a 17 percent increase over the previous year. Within this community, there are 170 models to choose from, priced between $100,000 and $1 million. Other communities in the region include Queensridge, a 1,100-acre, master-planned community with a residential complement of 850 acres; the Lakes, which offers residents lakeside homes with boating and fishing; and Los Prados, an active adult community. The near northwest is home to one of Las Vegas' oldest neighborhoods; know locally as the Scotch 80s," described in the post.*2

"Bordered by Rancho Road, I-15, Oakey Boulevard, and Charleston Ave, this community of large, ranch-style residences was once home to BB King, Shecky Greene, and Diana Ross. The Valley~{!&~}s largest assemblage of golf courses in the northwest, including the Badlands, Painted Desert, Los Prados, and Angel Park. Shopping at Meadows Mall and the Sahara Pavilion oasis nearby, and several neighborhood casinos, such as Santa Fe Station, Fiesta, and the Texas Station, offer fine dining and gaming, making it more convenient for residents who would prefer not to drive to the Strip. Apartments are plentiful, especially in the area of Sahara Road near Arville Street." *3

South Shores is one of the most important community in Summerlin. Dr. Tony Lei has been elected to the Board of the South Shores Community Association since 1993. The follwoing is a sample of his literature for the election in 2003:*4

"I wish to serve as a delegate because": I (Dr. Tony Lei) will offer my endeavor, knowledge, and ability to carry out the duties for the rights and benefits of the homeowners and residents here in our community. I'll work to motivate both the good production and human relations on the work performance of our Association and the Management Company which we, the homeowners, are paying service fees to support.

"Qualifications I feel will benefit the community": Delegates who are good in managemt knowledge and experience will do better with the Home Association Company to promote the work performance for the rights and benefits of our homeowners. Many years as an Associate Professor and Fellow of Management of the Graduate School of Business Administration of National Chung Hsing University and Pepperdine University, I may use my knowledge to serve our community. Many institutions such as Nevadan U. S. Representative of the Congress, District Attorney Office of Clark County, Constable's Office of Las Vegas Township, among others invited me as the Senior Advisor. I may use my experience to work for our homeowners and residents. I received my M.B.A. and Ed.D. in Institutional Management from Pepperdine University, Malibu, California, but my knowledge and experience will be also important for me to service our community together with my sincere and humble personal traits.

"Other information I wish to share": "Dr. Tony Lei has worked for our community in Southern Nevada more than ten years based on his belief that 'By the act of love itself, we are enriched. Love in action is service above self. Make service a part of our character and experience the abundant reward that comes from serving others. Let our heroes be the great servants who have given all for the betterment of others' lives. Let our candle fuel a fire that will fan out an ever-increasing circles. With these circles together we can close our eyes and evision a community that is safe, peaceful, and healthy.' We need such a people like him to work for our community," said a District Judge of our Family Court. I love the atmosphere here, I love the environment here, and especially I love the people here in our community. We should expect both of our Association and Management Company put effort to help our community be of our homeowners, by our homeowners , and for our homeowners. It's a good thing by working for you at the same time working for our families also because both of us are homeowners.*5

Without any opponent, Dr. Tony Lei won the election!*6

Dr. Tony Lei has served as a delegate and Director for South Shores Community Association since 1993.

Dr. Feng-wei Lai was born in September 20, 1953. His nationality is Penghu county, Taiwan.

He received his B.S. degree from Tunghai University. Dr. Feng-wei Lai earned his Engineering Management Doctoral degree (Ph. D.) from MISSOURI University here in the United States (USA).*3 He is now the Magistrate of Penghu County, Taiwan.

Dr. Lai also wrote a thesis entitled, "Technology Organization Alliance-Resonance Theory Perspective".

During his many years public service, he received the following honors:

This is a great challenge, but a worthy and honorable effort. Of international importance, Penghu's relationship and ties with Nevada has become a valuable asset.

To contribute to the Asian countries with the spirit of innovation and entrpreneurship, we need to emphasize our programs with our global e-business technology managemnt. We are surrounded by lots of e-business entreprises in this 21th Century era of businees world. An e-busineess entreprise is a business that uses the Internet, intranets, extranets, and other computer networks to support electronic business process, decision making, and team and workgroup collaboration within the enterprise and among its customers, suppliers, and other business partners.

One of our purposes is to strengthen our business prgrams with the emphasis of e-business technology management. We will encourage the management of information technology in our international e-business entreprises by three functions. We expect our e-business entriprises will make their managing information technologies effective by : (1)the joint development and implementation of e-business and Information Technology ( IT ) strategies by business and IT executives, (2)managing the research and implementation of new information technologies and the development of e-business applications, and (3)managing IT processes, professionals, and subunits within company's IT organization and Information System (IS) function.*2

Computer and technology are as natural as the air for the people in today's workplace which is teeming wih individuals who have terrific idea and a great deal to contribute. "In 'WinningWays,' Dick Lyles gives us four very powerful strategies that all of us can use to improve our relatioships with others and increase our own level of success. These are the best guidelines I've seen to help you unleash your power and reach your maximum potential," wrote Dr. Ken Blanchard.*3 The four powerful strtegies for the secret of winning ways are: (1). Make people feel stronger rather than weaker as a result of your interactions wih them. (2). Camels are Okay. In fact, today's camel builders will be tommorrow's leaders. (3). Avoid two-valued thinking traps, because very few decisions are choices between right and wrong or good and bad. (4). Influence for the future, rather than the present or the past.

"Lee Iacocca told us that management is nothing more than motivating other people. I agree with U. S. Congresswoman Shelley Berkley that once she said, 'The knowledge delivered by the publications of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) through its multimedia inspire us with a positive thinking to love our people, community, professionalism, and country.' I'm impressed that the Graduate School of Business and Public Administration (GSBPA) of WBTI quoted again lots of valuable words of positive thinking," said Judge Nancy Saitta, District Judge of Nevada. She likes to read the WBTI website (http://communitylink.reviewjournal.com/lvrj/wbti) with colorful and creative design. Even as the number 53,477th [on 5/5/2004 (now at the number of 102,671 on September 30, 2005)} visitor of the website, she is proud to be on the list. We express regret for that the numbers of this website are limited because of its contends by nature of the academic and professioal features. Intelletuals may ask that "How many people could and should be the readers of the book written by our famous scientist Albert Einstein?"

You never know! By adding the number of visitors who access it from the search engines leading giants such as Google.com, Google.cn, AOL.com, WebCrawler.com, Infoseek.com, among others, the number of visitors to WBTI website are numerous.

We are quite encouraged through the commends of their visiting either by President Dr. Andrew Benton of Pepperdine University, U. S. Senators Harry Reid and John Ensign, Chancellor Dr. Charles Runnels of Pepperdine University, U. S. Congresswoman Shelley Berkley, Justice of the Supreme Court Michael Douglas, District Judge Jessie Walsh, Clark County Commissioner Lynette McDonald, Judge Betsy Kolkoski, Sherrif Bill Young, District Court Judge Cheryl Moss, among others, or by their Secretaries.

Lei, Ed. D.

With the above words of wisdom, we are glad to have our leaders's inspiration and encouragement for the cooperation and development on tourism and business among international countries with Nevada:

Governor Kenny Guinn of Nevada reminds us that tourism is the bedrock of Nevada's economy. To expand and diversify our domestic and international markets are absolutely essential to our long-term economic growth and stability.*4

Governor Kenny Guinn and Lt. Govenor Lorraine Hunt said that Nevada's tourism industry must continue to expand its offerings and reach out to diverse markets that range from outdoor enthusiasts to residents of the world's most populous nation. Speaking at the general session of the Governor's Conference on Tourism at Caesars Palace, he and she each praised Nevada's continuing efforts to supplement its gaming-based core with non-gaming amenities such as shopping, dinning, and outdoor recreation.*5

Governor Guinn expresses that he can not overemphasize the significance and importance of bringing attention to all the attractions to Nevada at a time when it faces unprecedented competition for gaming customers. He believes that we are wise to expand our marketing efforts and focus on developing markets in places such as Asia. It is significant for him to point out that in addition to gaming, Nevada has phenomenal cultural, historic, and recreational resources that we must continue to promote. The Governor emphasizes that for our state's economy to thrive, all of the Silver State's tourism opportunities must be effectively marketed to both domestic and international visitors.*6

The modern and creative philosophy of management is advanced on the following words of wisdom, among others:*7

***"The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit." --- Moliere
***"Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity." --- Oprah Winfrey
***"The secret of joy in work is contained in one word -- excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it." --- Pearl Buck
***"Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed." --- Proverbs 15 : 22 "Bible"

"As a bridge between the business and university, the integrity of community service and academic research of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) will help Nevada go advance for the cooperation and development in education, business, and culture among international countries. As an Adjunct Associate Professor of the Graduate School of Business and Public Administration (GSBPA) of WBTI, it's my pleasure to extend my knowledge, experience, and professionalism in public service for community and education at the adjunct capacity," said Jackie Glass, District Judge of Nevada, at the event and dinner party by Unity Council of Nevada in Lindo Michoacan Mexican Restaurant on April 28, 2004 in Las Vegas.*8

Neveda has been famous internationally for its Governor�s Conference on Tourism every year. It is the time now to get our professionals in familiar with the coming one!

"The 2007 Nevada Governor�s Conference on Tourism (December 12-14, 2007) highlights the pertinent topics you need to know for increased profitability and tourism market share including NEW for 2007! workshop track sessions designed to fit your individual professional interests.

"On December 12, 2007, at 8:30 am - 9:00 am there will be the Welcome and Introduction. In the 'Welcome and Introduction' of General Assembly, we shall have Jim Gibbons, Governor, and Brian K. Krolicki, Lieutenant Governor, State of Nevada for the 'Opening Remarks'. The 'Introduction' will be delivered by the Commissioner of NCOT Lorraine T. Hunt-Bono. The topic of the Assembly will be on "Growth: Challenges and Opportunities". *1'

Innovation is practical for a real need. It is not a random process. "When it works, it works because someone has identified a real need, and found a way to bring new ideas or new technologies to bear on that need," said Lewis W. Lehr. An innovator's life is governed by "to create" lists. She or he is incessantly pursuing new possibilities and refinning existing ones.

"Business has only two functions," wrote the late Professor Peter Drucker, "marketing and innovation."

"One of my interests since I've been in this position on March 27, 2004 is to encourage the mutual cooperation and development of tourism and business between Nevada and the Asian Countries," said Associate Professor Barbara E. Buckley of the Graduate School of Business and Public Administration (GSBPA) of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI).

Supported by the Advisory Board and faculty members of WBTI since then with wisdom of cooperation and publicity through articles, its missions helped her win the election as Speaker of the Nevada Assembly in last November.

Our coming work performance to some significant projects will be feature articles for the visibility and popularity of some international cities through the world's leading search engines on Internet: (1) Beijing, (2) Soel, (3) Taipei, (4) Macau, (5) Bangkok, and (6) Clark County ("Las Vegas"). Tourism and business are our best priorities for the International Cities Business Council (ICBC) of WBTI, nothing much about politics. The late Dr. Peter F. Drucker inspired us that, "Innovation is very important. No good business can survive without successful innovation during a period of time!" Nevada is the fountain of hospitality and touring business. Macau is a recent practice with Nevada to have great prosperity in tourism and economic development. Now, Nevada Assemblywoman Francis Allen is a Regional Marketing Administrator of Korea of the AMI and Advisor of the ICBC of WBTI. For innovation and breakthrough in the field of business, the wise men may have a bright and beautiful sky!

To encourage tourism and business is a world-wide value for every country in this world, not just for Nevada! Volunteerly on a non-profit and non-partisan basis, we are pleased to assist the promotion of this endeavor. We love heartily the world that we are living with!

Innovation is one of the most important traits for the prosperity of American business. The time has come for our Pan Pacific and Asian countries to emphazise and catch it as soon as possible!

Meet Lorraine Hunt, Honorary Chairperson of International Cities Business Council of WBTI
By Michael Douglas, Valerie Weber, Bill Young, and Tiffany Chang

The International Cities Business Council (ICBC) of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) strives to build a bridge among important cities nationally and internationally. ICBC has set the following goals: (1) Mutual cooperation and development of business, trade, and tourism; (2) Public relations among businesses and professionals; and (3) Social and dinner events within the community with a friendly atmosphere.

"As the Hononary Chairperson of International Cities Business Council of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI), I'll have more venues to work for international tourism with Nevada Governor Kenny Guinn who is the Chairman of the Advisory Board of WBTI. We're putting all our effort and wisdom to work for our people, land, and country under the spiritual leadership of Chairperson Elaine Chao of WBTI," said Lorraine Hunt, Lt. Governor of Nevada, on November 11, 2005.
(The above message was signed by Lt. Governor of Nevada Lorraine Hunt.)*1

Justice of the Supreme Court Michael Douglas, District Judge Jessie Walsh, Clark County Commissioner Lynette McDonald, Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber, Clark County Sherriff Bill Young, business executives and owners, multimedia publishers and Editors-in-Chief, organizational and community leaders, and other VIPs co-sponsored the initial establishment of the Intercity Business Council of Nevada (also known as the "International Cities Business Council") of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) . The historical event took place on December 16, 2004 in Las Vegas, Nevada, U. S. A.

The Directors of the International Cities Business Council (ICBC) at the present time are: Honorable Han Zheng, Mayor of the City of Shanghai, China, Honorable Jim Gibson, Mayor of the City of Henderson, Nevada, Honorable Michael L.

Hunt also participates extensively in community service, including having served on the St. Rose Dominican Hospital Community Board, as past president and trustee of St. Jude s Ranch for Children, and as Vice-Chair of the Pan Pacific and Asian American Forum (PPAAF) of WBTI.*3

Representatives of Air China Cargo have informed Nevada leaders the carrier will use Reno-Tahoe International Airport as a diversion airport when bad weather prevents its scheduled cargo flights from landing in San Francisco, Lt. Gov. Lorraine Hunt said Thursday.

A letter from the airline also hinted that additional flights between Asia and Northern Nevada could be in store.

In recent years, Hunt has led three missions to China to encourage additional trade and tourism between China and Nevada.*4

Governor Kenny Guinn of Nevada reminds us that tourism is the bedrock of Nevada's economy. To expand and diversify our domestic and international markets are absolutely essential to our long-term economic growth and stability.*5

Governor Kenny Guinn and Lt. Govenor Lorraine Hunt said that Nevada's tourism industry must continue to expand its offerings and reach out to diverse markets that range from outdoor enthusiasts to residents of the world's most populous nation (China). Speaking at the general session of the Governor's Conference on Tourism at Caesars Palace, he and she each praised Nevada's continuing efforts to supplement its gaming-based core with non-gaming amenities such as shopping, dinning, and outdoor recreation.*6

"I can't overstate the significance of China's potential as a visitor market for Nevada," Lt. Governor Hunt said. "I found modern cities rife with elements of Western culture such as Starbucks Coffee, MTV, the Rat Pack-era music of Frank Sinatra, etc. Up to 10 percent of the country's approximately 1.4 billion residents can now afford to travel overseas, which has positioned China as Nevada's "newest and most-modern market" for tourism."

On May 18, 2000 Lt. Governor Lorriane Hunt of Nevada led a delegation from Nevada to Taipei of the Republic of China. "This is important to Nevada in areas beyond just our tourism industry. Taiwan enjoys a growing economy with considerable technological advancement and as such, they are one of the world's top 15 trading nations. And with Nevada's total exports exceeding one billion dollars in 1999 alone, our local businesses stand to benefit as the Taiwanese market continues to prosper and expand," Lt. Governor of Nevada Hunt pointed out in Taipei.*7

"The Nevada Commission on Tourism believes it is vital to establish a presence in Taiwan in order to represent our tourism destinations to this emerging world travel market. Taiwan's capital, Taipei, has a working population of four million, with a youthful, technologically oriented work force. There is tremendous potential for building tourism among this sector," said Hunt.*8

"Similar to the new direction of the government in Taiwan, we are seeking new horizons for the economy of Nevada. Building mutally beneficial relationships with Taiwan, and other foreign countries, will create the demand for direct, regularly scheduled flights. Our work will help Nevada establish contacts for lucrative business and convention visitors from around the world that will form the foundation for a new pillar in the Nevada economy."*9

This Labor Day!

From: Dina Titus [info@dinatitus.com]View Contact
To: Tony Dr. Lei [tojulei@yahoo.com]

Dear Tony,

As summer comes to an end and we celebrate Labor Day with our friends and family today, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support and friendship and for the opportunity to fight on your behalf while serving you here at home in Nevada�s Third District.

While Labor Day is a time of rest and relaxation, picnics and barbeques, and a celebration of our hard work, it is also a reminder of the challenges we face and the importance of turning Nevada�s economy around so we can put people back to work.

Our nation has faced an unprecedented financial crisis that led to the deepest recession in a generation. Years of failed economic policies set the stage for challenges we face head on today � challenges that we cannot solve overnight. But already we have taken significant steps to prevent a future crisis and lay the foundation for an economic recovery. We are reining in Wall Street banks and putting an end to taxpayer bailouts. I have supported vital investments in our state, from health care to education, at a time when Nevada faces unprecedented budget shortfalls. I voted for critical funding that has saved 1,800 jobs at the airport and kept more than 2,000 teachers in the classroom, while investing in renewable energy that will diversify our economy and lead to the jobs of tomorrow.

While I�m proud of what we have accomplished, I know we still have a long road ahead of us to get Nevada back on track. As you enjoy this long weekend with your family and loved ones, please know that I will continue my efforts to create jobs in Southern Nevada and fight on your side.

Sincerely,

(Autograph)
Dina Titus
