Dear Fellow Rotarians

At the onset, I wish to express sincere gratitude to members of the Rotary Club of Kantipur Kathmandu for reposing so much trust and faith in me. I also take this occasion to thank our Immediate Past President Rtn. Pradeep Kumar Shrestha and other Past Presidents for their exemplary leadership and guidance over the years. I assure you that the core values and principles of Rotary will remain the guiding light in the discharge of my responsibilities as President of this club.

We are all bound by the common desire to create a just and equitable world where every individual can lead a decent life, even in the face of adversity. As people of action and problem solvers, we Rotarians have a shared responsibility to take action on the world’s most persistent issues, as reflected in Rotary’s Seven Areas of Focus. So many lives and communities have been touched; so much has been achieved. Yet, much remains to be done; we owe it to our future generations, if not to ourselves.

As always, I am confident of our club members’ advice, support, encouragement and robust participation in club activities. I would be amiss if I did not applaud the pivotal role our wonderful members of the Rotaract Club of Kantipur continue to play in implementation of our activities. We are also confident of the continued support of the Inner Wheel Club of Kantipur in this regard.

On behalf of the club, I would also extend my deep gratitude to Secretary Rajeev Sharma for assuming the challenging responsibility of editor-in-chief of this souvenir.

Together, let us create hope in the world.

Thank  you,

Sarad Raj Bista
President 2023-024
