INTERACT : • Our district has one of the biggest number of Interact Clubs in the Rotary world. • We have more than 160 Interact Clubs with almost 9,000 Interacters. • Most Rotary Clubs sponsor at least one Interact Clubs. • Many like my own club sponsors 9 Interact Clubs. • With 3 Rotarian Advisers to each Interact club, Interact becomes one of the main activities of the Rotary Clubs.

  5. ROTARACT • A Rotary International programme for young adults from the ages of 18 to 30. • A Rotaract Club can be institution or community based.

  6. District Rotaract Assembly (DRA) • An annual event where the in-coming Rotaract Club Board of Directors are trained. • In-coming Governor, DRC, DRR, should be fully involved in the training. • Sponsoring Rotary Clubs should provide financial assistance to the Rotaractors to attend as stated in the Rotary Mission Statement on Rotaract.

Attendance at General Meetings is • strongly encouraged. • We advise that senior Rotarians who are both • knowledgeable and have influence over club • matters be assigned as Rotaract Club’s advisers.

  8. Asian Pacific Regional Rotaract Conference (APRRC) • A regional Rotaract event initiated by PDG Alex Mak from Hong Kong in 2004. • Rotaracters from all the countries in the Asia Pacific are encouraged to attend. • The first one was held in Hong Kong and I was honoured to be part of that first APRRC. • Credit must be given to PDG Alex Mak for the vision, dedication and personal sacrifice in terms of time and money to initiate and organise the first APRRC. • It is one of the best regional activities to unite Rotaract in our region.

  9. INTERACT • One of the Rotary’s most successful programs for the youth. • Interact is for children between the age of 14 and 18. • Interact Clubs can be school based or community based.
