Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) has been appointed Acting Chairperson of the Intercity Business Council of Nevada of Washington Business and Technology Institute
BY Michael Douglas, Jessaie Walsh, Lynette McDonald, Valerie Weber, and Tiffany Chang*1

"Through the recommendations by our faculty members including Justice of the Supreme Court Michael Douglas, District Judge Jessie Walsh, Clark County Commissioner Lynette McDonald, Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber; Miss Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) has been appointed Acting Chairperson of the Intercity Business Council of Nevada (IBCN) of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) on July 15, 2005," announced Dr. John Wang, Spokesman of WBTI, on Monday July 18, 2005 in Las Vegas, Nevada, U. S. A.*2

"I'm so excited about the appointment since lots of my job are related to have a function on the basis of international perspective. Through this professional and practical venue, I'll put all my efforts to implement the missions for the promotion of the economic and trade development among Nevada, Taiwan, and Shanghai," said Miss Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) after she was informed by WBTI about her appointment on July 16, 2005 in Las Vegas.

Charlyne is a first generation immigrant from the Republic of China. Her family owns a motel on Las Vegas Boulevard that she helped operate from the time she was 14 years old. As a local resident, Charlyne attended Orr Jr. High School and Valley High school. After graduating, she attended UNLV for my freshmen and sophomore years and Cal State Fullerton in California.

Miss Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) is the 亚洲总裁 (Asian President) of Info21 Data Media Group. In 2003 the Nevada Commission on Economic Development appointed Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) as a representative in Taiwan to further the trade and investment relationships between Nevada and Taiwan. In 2004, she was appointed as the representative in Shanghai by the Commission.*3

中国纺织采购网 delivered its following press release on September 2004 in Shanghai, China: "2004 年 9 月 15 日 ， 美国内华达州经济局局长 Alan Di Stefano 在 Info21 亚洲总裁 Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) 女士的陪同下 ， 来我司进行调研和拜访。我司韩总以及公司相关部门负责人参加了会晤。 会上，韩总对 Alan Di Stefano 局长一行的来访表示热烈的欢迎，对 Info21 对我司一直以来的关心、帮助和支持表示感谢。....."*4

As the CEO of Info21 Data Media Group with operation in Shanghai, Taiwan and Hong Kong which provide trade intelligence, Charlyne has achieved a great deal to be the Representative of State Nevada on Economic Development for Shanghai and Taiwan. She has been invited by Governor of Ponghu as an official advisor on tourism and legalized gaming.

Charlyne has been instrumental in the process to have United Commercial Bank (a Chinese-owned bank with 45 U.S. branches in California and New York) establish the first branches of a Chinese Bank in Nevada (Las Vegas). A Chinese bank in Texas will also open a branch here with an investment of U. S. $20 millions.

Charlyne Chen (陳思庭) was awarded "Outstanding Chinese Young Entrepreneur of 2003" by "Asia Week" magazine in HK. On May 17, 2005 NCED, together with Charlyne Chen, held a seminar in Las Vegas for approximately 100 Taiwanese business owners, assembled for the Hardware Association exhibition, on investing in Nevada.

In anticipation of the potential for increased tourism in Penghu, Taiwan, at least one Nevada casino enterprise has already purchase a significant piece of property in Penghu. At the request of Charlyne Chen, NCED has contacted several Nevada cities about establishing a sister-city relationship with Penghu. A Team of delegation organized by the high-ranking officials of Penghu will come to Las Vegas in August, 2005 for further plan in tourism and business cooperation and development.*5

In order to build an association among important cities nationally and internationally for: (1) Mutual cooperation and development of business, trade, and tourism; (2) Social and public relations among business and professionals; and (3) Event and dinner parties for our community in an atmosphere of friendly and mutual cooperation. Justice of the Supreme Court Michael Douglas, District Judge Jessie Walsh, Clark County Commissioner Lynette McDonald, Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber, Southern Nevada Sherrif Bill Young, business executives and owners, multimedia publishers and Editor-in-Chief, organizational and community leaders, among others co-sponsored the initial establishment of Intercity Business Council of Nevada on December 16, 2004 in Las Vegas, Nevada, U. S. A.*6

In her service in the TACC-NC, she has broken the organization's record of making donations to both local and world-wide charity organizations, in both the number of benefited charity organizations and the total monetary value.*4

Very soon, Ms. Wendy Wu is going to complete her term as President of the Taiwan Benevolent Association of America (TBAA) on July 30, 2005. Out of the excellent experience, knowledge, enthusiasm, and professionalism of Ms. Wu, she has elevated the TBAA to a new height in terms of its fame, quality and significance among many American Chinese and Asian American institutions in this country.

Now, TBAA is scheduled to hold its profound 28th Annual Conference throughout the July 29-30 weekend (2005) in Las Vegas, Nevada. In light of President Wu's efforts and unselfish spirit in promoting cross-culture understanding and mutual respect for diversified interests rising from a variety of the communities, she has already become a real dynamic force and role model in the common pursuit of improving quality of life for our society.

"We're pleased to have Ms. Wendy Yu-Ping Wu's interest in offering her caliber whose integrity, knowledge, and experience may bring to Washington Business and Technology Institute an interstate perspective," points out President Dr. Tony Lei of WBTI. "Throughout Ms. Wendy Wu's distinguished endeavor, she has accomplished a great deal of business and community service practices and earned a good reputation as a conscientious and dedicated professional. Wendy deserves the award of Governor Kenny Guinn." *5

JOHN L. SMITH: Column proves senator from Searchlight has no shortage of enemies

I'm glad to see we're all in agreement on my recent column about the effectiveness of Sen. Harry Reid in the battle over the Bush administration's judicial nominees.
