Greetings from Korea! |
|
We welcome you to Korea, Land of the morning Calm. I am honored to welcome you to our country for the 37th annual SEANET Convention, hosted for the first time in Korea. Our convention is truly a worthwhile endeavor as if affords us the opportunity to meet face to face and strengthen our bonds of friendship and learn from each other through sharing and discussion of our mutual interests. Because I have had the opportunity to attend and participate in a number of our conferences, I have visited many countries and gained greater understanding for various peoples and cultures that I may not otherwise have known. Further, I have deepened some of my SEANET friendships to consider many to be a part of my extended family. Understandably, some travelers may have concerns when visiting Korea with the current political climate as well as its proximity to other nations who have had SARS outbreaks in the past. However, everyone who travels to Korea comes to see it is a safe, warm, and welcoming city where tourists can comfortably enjoy sightseeing and walking throughout its cities. Korea is rich in history and culture. Her history is 5000 years long and we have preserved historical sites and monuments in hopes of sharing them with her future generations and visitors. Korean culture is one of kindness, warmth and open mindedness. Our cuisine is popular around the world for it’s savory and spicy flavors as well as its healthy nature. Korea enjoys 4 distinct seasons, each of them with their own beauty and delights. October, however, is often seen as the prime month for leisure travel to Korea. We’re sure your visit to Korea for SEANET will inspire you to return with family and friends to explore here history, natural wonders, and come to know here people and culture. Dear SEANET friends, I and all Koran Ham radio operators wait your arrival and look forward to welcoming you to Korea. Hope to see all here, in October.73! & 88!
