New Year Message from the President of WBTI
By GSBPA, WBTI

It is our pleasure to deliver up the 2004 New Year Message of our President, Dr. Tony Lei, to our friends as in the following:

Following the inspiration of the past many years of the accomplishment of Ms. Elaine Chao's contribution of humane spirit to our society, we have the persistense of Wou Shien's spirit for education here in America. If a coolie and hard woker like him could dedicate to eduction by offering all his income and life to build a school for children in his village, what should not for us to offer our efforts for our community? We agree with a District Judge of Family Court who points out that our Institute has worked for our community in Southern Nevada more that eight years based on our belief that "By the act of love itself, we are enriched. Love in action is service above self. Make service a part of our characters 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 envision a community that is safe, peaceful, and healthy." By loving the God, we love the atmosphere here, we love the environment here, and especially we love the people here in our community.

For our people and community, our talent and power are very limited, but our mission and dignity are large and high. We will never regret that our efforts and wisdom dedicate to the promotion of the quality of life of the residents and visitors of Nevada are encouraged by many officials, business, multimedia, among others, but without a penny through them because we did not ask for money. For many years, we taught people successfully to make money through the modern knowledge of organization and management in business. For the years to go, we will continue to encourage our friends to love the God, and our people, professionalism, community, and country.

In this 21st Century new era and society, we need economic growth and personal prosperity, but we need also to establish and promote creativity, fairness and justice, serve and love, educational knowledge, and spirit engineering. We wish that a pure fountain may prosper and enrich our splendid and silver country through: the power of public service that based on knowledge is the power of rightousness; the advancement of technology, entreprenueship, and innovation; and the spirit that knowledge calls, ultimately, for a life of service.

Advisory Board: Governor Kenny Guinn, Chairman; U. S. Senators Harry Reid and John Ensign, Vice Chairmen; U. S. Representatives James Gibbons and Shelley Berkley, and Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman, Executive Directors.
