The PATA Micronesia Chapter also held its board election for the 2013/2014 term. Assuming the position for Secretary is Mr. Darin De Leon from the Palau Visitors Authority. Ms. Judy Torres from the Marianas Visitors Authority was elected Treasurer, and Mr. Don Evans will serve as the chapter’s Vice Chairman. Finally, Ms. Pilar Laguaña from the Guam Visitors Bureau was elected Chairwoman and will lead the chapter in the coming year.

“The PATA General Membership Meeting and PATAmPower seminar was a great success thanks to PATA for making the free training possible to members of our travel industry. I would also like to congratulate all of the newly-elected PATA Micronesia Chapter Officers. I am excited to work with them, and I’m also looking forward to working closely with PATA in the coming year to enhance the growth, value, and quality of travel and tourism throughout our region,” said Pilar Laguana, PATA Micronesia Chapter 2013 Chairwoman.
