Subject: Resignation of TRF Chairman Past President Bhichai Rattakul
Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2007 09:12:24 -0500


My Dear District Governors:
Past President Bhichai Rattakul is currently in Evanston where he is
completing all matters currently awaiting his decisions as a result of his
resignation as Chairman of The Rotary Foundation, effective 1 August 2007.
Past President Bhichai, however, will complete his term as a Trustee to the
end of the 2007-08 Rotary year.
Past President Bhichai has further asked me to convey to you his deepest
regret over his decision to resign as the chairman of The Rotary Foundation
due to his health and that of his wife and to inform you that all travel
arrangements and engagements that he has made prior to his resignation as
Chairman of The Rotary Foundation after 1 August 2007 have to be cancelled.
Our apologies for any inconveniences experienced as a result of this
unanticipated change of plans.
TRF Vice Chairman Robert Scott will succeed Past President Bhichai as
Chairman as of 1 August for the remainder of the 2007-08 Rotary year.
Should you wish to consult with Trustee Scott regarding his travel schedule,
please direct your inquiries to Ann Fleming, ann.fleming@ rotary.org.
Bob is also in Evanston this week and I am pleased that he and Past
President Bhichai will have some time together to focus on transition.
Your patience and cooperation is appreciated as this needed planning takes
place. We all want what is best for our Foundation.
Sincerely,
Ed Futa
General Secretary
The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International

Well, things happen to all groups and people on all levels.

That's the great thing about a massive team.  You fill it in and keep on rolling! 

Trying to get without first giving is as fruitless as trying to reap without having first sown.

It does not do to leap a 20 ft chasm in two ten foot jumps.
