<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-FJ">As I see off a historic Friday evening here at the PDF Secretariat in Suva, Fiji Islands, and acknowledging that this is also my final day as CEO of our great organisation, the Pacific Disability Forum, I take this opportunity
to thank all the members, staff, partners, friends and admirers of PDF for the memorable journey I had with you since I took up this role as founding CEO 17 years and 6 months ago. We have created something very beautiful and special here in the Pacific and
trust you will look after it and take it to even greater heights in the months and years ahead!<u></u><u></u></span></p>
