2014-15 國際扶輪社長 四 月份 文告

 

親愛的扶輪社友們:

 
  今天的通訊方式比以前多很多。在視訊會議及即時訊息的時代,我們幾乎可各自在任何地方互相合作,而且隨時保持聯繫;我們能在Facebook、Twitter、及Rotary.org,分享我們的扶輪工作。但是你現在手中拿的或在電子閱讀器上看的雜誌,總是扮演非常重要的角色。

 

  

  國際扶輪英文月刊The Rotarian 是世界上最悠久的雜誌之一,它從1911年第一期起就發行不墜,保羅•哈理斯也是該期的投稿人之一。當時,雜誌是黑白印刷,只有幾頁。字小圖少,刊登廣告的有鋼琴商、針線鈕扣商、以及一家有冷熱自來水的飯店。

  
  現在,你能在手機或平板電腦上讀國際扶輪英文月刊,而且也有以24 種語言出版的地域雜誌。17 位諾貝爾獎得獎人及19 位普立茲獎得獎人為國際扶輪英文月刊寫過文章,包括聖雄甘地Mahatma Gandhi、屠圖Desmond Tutu、蕭伯納George Bernard Shaw、及尼古拉斯•穆瑞•巴特勒Nicholas Murray Butler。每個月,國際扶輪英文月刊每期都扼要報導扶輪世界佳音:扶輪雜誌使我們產生參與的興趣、娛樂我們、啟發我們、激勵我們。
  

  在一個無時不刻通訊的時代,有那麼多方法可以找到新資訊,我們仍然需要扶輪雜誌嗎?那當然。因為扶輪雜誌現在,正如以往一樣,是散佈扶輪消息的最佳方式之一。讓我能分享扶輪日的樂趣及興奮,展示全世界各地扶輪社員的善行,而且顯著報導影響我們所有人的重大問題。國際扶輪英文月刊不僅讓扶輪社員享受到閱讀的樂趣,也是增進扶輪公共形象的好方法,而且告訴全世界扶輪社員在做些什麼。

  
  因此你讀完這一期之後,請拿給別人看。問你自己,誰可能對這個月的文章特別感興趣。把這一期送給你的朋友、工作夥伴、或同事。和你曾經邀請他參加扶輪例會的人分享這一期。造訪www.therotarianmagazine.com,以便在社交媒體分享扶輪故事,或透過電子信件寄送扶輪月刊網站的鏈接。用它來光耀扶輪,正如扶輪社員們100 多年來那樣。

  
 

2014-15 年度國際扶輪社長

2014-15 RI President’s Message in April 2015

 

DEAR FELLOW ROTARIANS,  

 
 Today there are so many more ways to communicate than ever before. In the age of video conferences and instant messages, we can work together from almost anywhere, and always be in touch; we can share our Rotary work on Facebook, on Twitter, and on Rotary.org. But there will always be a tremendously important role for the magazine that you are now holding in your hands – or reading on an electronic device.

 
  
The Rotarian is one of the oldest continuously published magazines in the world, with an unbroken publication history dating back to its first issue, featuring Paul Harris as a contributor, in 1911. Back then, the magazine was printed in black and white, and was only a few pages. The type was small, the pictures were few, and the advertisements were for piano dealers, haberdashers, and a hotel fully equipped with hot and cold running water!
 
Now, you can read The Rotarian on your phone or tablet, and regional magazines are published in 24 languages. Seventeen Nobel Prize winners and 19 Pulitzer Prize winners have written for the magazine, including Mahatma Gandhi, Desmond Tutu, George Bernard Shaw, and Nicholas Murray Butler. Every month, The Rotarian brings us a snapshot of the best of the Rotary world: It engages, entertains, enlightens, and inspires.
  
In an age of constant communication, with so many ways to find new information, do we still need a Rotary magazine? Absolutely. Because the magazine is now, as it has always been, one of the best ways to spread the word about Rotary. It has allowed me to share the fun and excitement of Rotary Days, it showcases the good work of Rotarians around the world, and it puts a spotlight on important issues aff ecting us all. The Rotarian isn’t just enjoyable for Rotarians – it’s a great way to boost Rotary’s public image, and show the world the work that Rotarians do.

  

So when you’re done reading this issue, pass it along. Ask yourself who might be particularly interested in this month’s articles. Give the issue to a friend, a co-worker, or a colleague. Share it with someone you’ve invited to a Rotary club meeting. Visit www.therotarianmagazine.com to share stories on social media, or send links through email. Use it to Light Up Rotary – just as Rotarians have been doing for more than 100 years.
 
 

Gary C.K. Huang President, Rotary

International, 2014-15
