2011/12/17 Dear Association Leaders and Friends,
We all feel very proud that on Oct 8, 2011, with the help from both Chicago Chinese Community and Mainstream Society, we successfully organized a magnificent “ Xinhai Chinese Revolution Centennial Parade”. Many thanks to the associations and companies that contributed the floats, many thanks to the co-chairs that offered generous sponsorship, many thanks to the associations that organized marching groups, many thanks to the student associations for the volunteer work, many thanks to media for the promotion, also special thanks to the Consulate-General of China in Chicago for the strong support, and special thanks to the Chicago Chinatown Special Events Committee for all the hard works.
Xinhai revolution put China on the road for progress. Chicago Chinese Community offered strong support to Xinhai Revolution and played important role in the progress of both US and China. Xinhai Revolution was the joint efforts of Chinese from all over the world. Now the celebration of Xinhai Revolution once again unites Chinese around the world. Let’s work together for the development of our community, the development of the city, a better relationship between US and China and the development of both US and China.
Tony Hu, Chairman of Chinese American Association of Greater Chicago.
