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
