34th GACPA Annual National Convention Kick-Off Activities

My warmest greetings to all the participants and guests to the 34th GACPA Annual National Convention in this beautiful island of “Dinagyang”.

After almost a year of preparation for this event, finally we are gathered as one not only to discuss issues and concerns affecting our profession, but likewise renew acquaintances and reinvigorate our strength towards a common goal.  This year’s theme “Enhancing the culture of Integrity, Accountability and Transparency” has been the battlecry of many, both public and private individuals organizations.  We firmly believe that this nation can only move forward with leaders whose integrity and dedication are beyond reproach, whose words and actions speak for themselves leaving no room for Juan dela Cruz to doubt.  This is where we can play a vital role as CPAs particularly in the area of funds utilization and accountability, of our already thinning resources.

May I therefore admonish every participant to this convention to take an active role towards the attainment of GACPA’s mission and vision and continue the search for new initiatives and doable reforms, thus, making us a more vibrant partner in nation building.

Lastly, let me take this opportunity to extend my heartfelt thanks and gratitude to all the officers and members of the Board both from the National Headquarters and the Host Chapter, to the working committees, the speakers, the participants and to the countless others whose efforts, time and resources contributed to the success of this convention.

To our Almighty God and Loving Father, my Praises for His unconditional love and guidance all the way!

Maayong adlaw sa Aton Tanan!

LOURDES M. CASTILLO
President, GACPA
