紐英倫中華公所董事大會
1. Due
to my travel schedule in the last two months, I have not been able to file the Quarterly
report to the Attorney General’s Office due on November 15. I will file the
report by December 15.

2.
The committee to look into the C-Mart lease
comeback with a report that raised serious question whether Rick Wong, the
former CCBA president, breached his fiduciary duties to CCBA by executing the
lease which in part was not authorized by the CCBA board. I have asked Mr. Wong
to provide a written response to the committee's findings prior to this meeting
but he has failed to do so. I am handing this matter over to the Election/Bylaws
Committee to determine what recourse CCBA has against Mr. Wong.
中國超市租約研究小組交回來的報告，對前任中華公所主席黃光野的執行這未獲中華公所董事會授權租約，是否違反了中華公所給予他的信託義務，提出嚴肅質疑。我已要求黃先生在本次會議前，就小組的調查發現做書面回應，但他沒這麼做。我現在把這事交給選舉/章程小組，請他們決定中華公所有甚麼資源來追究。
3. Following
the instruction of Captain Fong of the BPD, CCBA has paid $79,602.95 to the Downtown
Crossing BID for the addition of the Chinatown cameras to their contract. The
equipment is now on order. We have presented to several trustees of the
Chinatown Charitable Trust the concept of using this expenditure to offset the
CCBA loan. The concept is well received by a few members. However, there has
not been a trust meeting yet.
