CHAIRMAN ' S MESSAGE
Firstly, on behalf of Asian Beacon, I would like to apologize to all donors, supporters, partners and readers for not publishing the magazine for the past 18 months. Many were not informed of the temporary suspension of the publication. The advisors and newly elected committee( Oct. 2016) view the non-publication with concern. We would like to take this opportunity to assure you that it will not happen again.
Since October 2016, I have met many amazing people – former chairmen, advisors, donors, volunteers, supporters, former editors and writers. It humbles me when I hear about their passion and stories about Asian Beacon. It has given us a better understanding of the legacy and the spirit behind Asian Beacon. Their time and efforts rendered towards the Asian Beacon ministry will only spur us to continue the good work. Here are some updates.
We will continue to publish the Asian Beacon magazine four issues per year. Asian Beacon’ s website will be updated with new features as follows:- Online Study on biblical personal finance.- A platform to promote talented young musicians and song writers.- Shopping Cart featuring young entrepreneurs where they can promote their creations.- Mission Partner Portal to allow churches to recruit and partner mission volunteers.- A section on building a strong family, creative arts and education.- Events organizing.- Advertisement on career opportunities. We hope that Asian Beacon will be a channel to provide the needs to grow and add value to the community, in particular the Christian community. Together with the newly elected executive committee, we look forward to working with you.
Wishing all our friends and supporters a Blessed and Happy New Year!
Tan Yoke Tee
Chairman, Asian Beacon
