APAPA Albany Chapter at the new york state office of general services

“Thank you New York State Office of General Services and commissioner Jeanette M. Moy for making our chapter part of your annual Lunar New Year celebration. Great turnout on a weekday afternoon, delicious food and beautiful cultural performances.

A big thanks to Ting-Ting Wang, Marai Kang, Augi Eng and Howard Eng for setting up the APAPA information table at this event and spreading the word about our initiatives.”

January 2023 Meeting

“The chapter meeting was held on 01/26/2023 to discuss the agenda for 2023. It was so nice to meet at our late leader and chapter founder Dr. HP Wang’s house, thanks to his wife and our senior advisor TingTing Wang for the delicious food. We missed some of our regular chapter leaders at this meeting due to sickness and their busy schedules but great to have some new community leaders from the local API communities.”
