董事長的話王梅鳳

I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone that came tonight. Thank you for your 745_2012 台美親善小姐 Miss Taiwanese American Pageant - 0002support of 2012 Miss Taiwanese American Pageant. I was so honored to be the 2009 Chairwoman of this event, and I realized how meaningful the pageant is. Every single year, our beautiful and talented Miss Taiwanese Americans serve as community liaisons or volunteers to promote Taiwan and Taiwanese culture. I am so proud and impressed of what they did and will do.

We have a lot of ladies showing their interests of this event. That means we have been appreciated by the Taiwanese American Community. However, only certain numbers of them can be the finalists. Tonight, we have 14 ladies and in my mind, you are all winners. After 2 months’ intensive training, you get to learn more about pageant itself and how to be an ambassador of Taiwanese American. With your intelligence, courage, beauty and talent, we know you will take pride in Taiwan’s unique identity and heritage and be the best to promote Taiwan.

Lastly, I want to thank you for all our special guests, our sponsors. Without you, we would not be able to accomplish anything. The dedication from many people makes this event successful. Thank you Chairwoman, Sue Lai, CEO, Catherine Yu, and all committee members. Don’t forget the board members of the Taiwan Center, our hard-working judges, excellent performing artists, and all the volunteers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you and enjoy tonight!

Chairperson, Taiwan Center Foundation of Greater Los Angeles, Mei Feng Tsai
