Achievements 2006-7
Introduction
During the first 5 years, our
Rotary Club of Bali Ubud has dedicated its time and money to mostly large
projects.
A year ago, the newly elected
President’s focus was on improving the internal management of the Club. Thanks
to the contribution of so many people it occurred very well.
And from the President’s side a big
Thank You to Secretary Graeme in absentia for his endless support.
Please remember Tjokorda Raka
Kerthyasa was elected for President but due to his engagement in politics he
asked to be the first runner up to do the job.
