A Message From The Venerable Master
Paulo Wu, 33°

Dear Brethren,
Fraternal greetings to all!
It is with great honor to be elected as the new Venerable Master for the Scottish Rite of  Taipei Bodies,

and I am deeply humbled by the support of many brethren, Sir Knights, Illustrious members of a great fraternity in which I am so proud to be part of.
During these past two years of COVID restrictions, lockdowns, quarantine, and so on…indeed it was a challenge to all of us, albeit we still did our best to continue our craft (although far apart), we successfully in the end of 2022 we held our Fall Reunion in Taipei, Taiwan.

The “Spartan Class” which initiated 8 to the Scottish Rite craft!
Herewith later in the newsletter you will find their pictures and brief profile of them.
Also in this newsletter you will find the newly elected officers for the Taipei Bodies. I am looking forward in working/cooperating with them in the new term.

Moving ahead towards in 2023, we will be having exciting new changes in regard to the newsletter, perhaps bimonthly and, we hope this newsletter is something that is for everyone, so we will be asking for articles, stories, and profiles of some outstanding brothers that are worthy of spot light in the newsletter!

And lastly but not least, I am looking forward in seeing everyone personally in the Spring Reunion in Bangkok in Thailand, please stay tuned for details to follow.
“Engage!”
