"FELMAUSA'S Past Leaderships Were Successfu", Position Statement From FELMAUSA'S PRO

Fellow Felmausans, we have come a long way from the elementary or formation stage of our most cherished federation (Felmausa) to this point. We have all in one way or the other invested immensely into the successes of this federation from 2007 till present and I believe that we are still with the conviction and commitment doing a lot more in the achievement of lot of successes in the future to come.

While I may want to subscribe to views that we champion our goals on a united front, I may not want to be in an agreement with views of failures of any leadership of the federation. The Richmond’s era for an example did a very good job by introducing our community to hosts of new developments like a slide away from the traditional “Dance Organization” that most of us were accustomed to, to a politically arranged and involved process.

Also, during the Dukuly’s term, we saw an accelerating trend of tailoring our goals through a more active and engaged way thereby creating and maintaining the missions and goals of the federation. Now may not be the time to finger point but rather to muster courage of attracting more community members that might have a different views and opinions all together about this federation.

We are going to do better if and only if we interact with open minds and at the same time respect the views and contributions of others that have served as well as those that have suggested good ideas in the smooth ridding of our overwhelming and jammed park vehicle that’s rolling on the express way.

Together we shall achieve our desired and most anticipated missions and goals. May God bless our federation and its’ entire membership…
