THE WORLD HARMONY FOUNDATION

Chairman Lester Wolff Green

Celebrates His 102nd birthday

 

The World Harmony Foundation’s Honorary Chairman Lester Wolff,
a 102-year-old Senior Congressman,

 initiated a Sustainable Development Goals Educational Wildlife Refuge at his birthday party with WHF.

On January 4, 2021, the Honorary Chairman of WHF, Lester Wolff,

 who is a well-known expert on Asian foreign affairs in the United States, and a former Congressman who played an important role in promoting the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States.

WHF Global Headquarters held an unique online birthday celebration for Lester Wolff in New York. WHF Directors and members attended the celebration from offices in Asia, Africa, Latin America,
Europe, and Australia.


The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
said:

 "He is a gift to America and is an outstanding figure
in American history."

He served as Campaign Manager for President John F. Kennedy and then was elected to the House of Representatives in 1964 and served until 1981. He also received the highest honor in the United States in 2014-the Congressional Medal of Honor. He was also a contributor to the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, as he lobbied most of the Congressmen & Senators in the both Houses to pass the bill to sign the normalization of Sino-US relations with Deng Xiaoping. These are all recorded in the papers of
 the Congress.

Last year, during his 101st birthday, Lester Wolff received a huge gift from the White House and both the House of Representatives:

The Oyster Bay National Wildlife Refuge was unanimously passed in the House and Senate, and signed by the President to be legally renamed

“The Congressman Lester Wolff Oyster Bay National Wildlife Refuge”.

 This was in order to commemorate his protection of the environment at the bay from the damage that would be caused from the construction of a bridge across Long Island Sound, bringing much vehicular traffic to the area.
The bill was submitted by Congressman Tom Suozzi, who presented a certificate and plaque on the behalf of the White House and the Congress to Lester in the January 2020 event. Frank Liu, was invited by Lester Wolff to witness this ceremony.

On January 4, 2021, Lester Wolff is very happy to join the WHF global members at the birthday celebration to planning to submit an application to the UNDESA to make the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Educational Resource Center at the Lester Wolff National Wildlife Refuge,

 and plans to establish "sister parks" in different countries in the world in order to promote the United Nations’ SDG Goals to educate the community to pay attention to protecting natural ecology, protecting forests, protecting endangered animals, promotion of renewable energy, and preventing the spread of viruses, and preventing global warming.

The Initiative Letter to United Nations Department of Economics and Social Affairs (UNDESA) which in charge of UN-SDGs, Forestry and Bio-diversity was sent on Lester’s birthday.

Lester Wolff was very excited to express his testimony at
the birthday celebration:

 “From John F. Kennedy to Trump, he has served as an advisor to eight presidents out of nine. Harmony and Peace is his goal in life. God keeps him alive with good health to continue with the work of maintaining peace every day. His wish is to see "Sino-US relations improve to the point that they are completely friendly and Cross-Strait peace between China and Taiwan is completely realized!”

He advocated that China, the United States and Taiwan should re-play "Ping Pong Diplomacy” for world peace and harmony.

All WHF members hope that the dream of WHF Honorary Chairman former Congressman Wolff can come true.

《世界和谐基金会荣誉主席102岁的资深国会议员寿辰发起绿色行动》---- 联合国生态教育五大洲连锁基地

2021年1月4日,世界和谐基金会(WHF)荣誉主席、美国著名亚洲事务外交家,曾对中美建交起到重要促进作用的前国会众议员莱斯特·沃尔夫(Lester Wolff)迎来了102岁的生日,WHF全球总部在纽约为他举行了别开生面的线上生日庆典。WHF理事与嘉宾从亚洲、非洲、拉丁美洲、欧洲、澳洲等五大洲办事处连线出席。他们共同唱“Happy Birthday ”生日歌而开始了连线的庆典活动,各地干部们分别给他发来了祝福语与幸运红包,祝他长寿二百岁!


美国国会议长Nancy Pelosi说: “Lester是美国的国宝级人物。Lester Wolff生于1919年1月4日,今年102岁,是目前美国最长寿的一位前国会议员。他于1964年当选国会众议员,做过肯尼迪总统的竞选经理,并连任至1981年。他在2014年还获得了美国最高荣誉 —— 国会金质奖章。他也是中美建交的功臣,因为当年他很智慧地在国会游说了大部份议员通过议案,让卡特与邓小平签署中美关系正常化的协议,这些都记载在“国会秘密档案里“。


2020年1月,在他101岁生日之际,Lester Wolff 得到白宫与参众两院的最好礼物:长岛Oyster Bay 生态公园被两院投票通过并由总统签字而法定命名为 “Lester Wolff野生栖息地天然公园“, 为纪念他为保护这块湿地港湾不会因为建设大桥而导致”水、土、气、树、“等生态环境的破坏。给国会提交这个议案的著名议员Tom Suozzi 代表国会与白宫亲自颁发了证书与牌匾。


1月4日这天,Lester Wolff非常高兴在庆祝生日活动上与WHF全球会员一起倡导发起向联合国申办“Lester Wolff生态公园为联合国可持续发展目标国际连锁教育基地“,并计划与世界五大洲不同的野生湿地公园建立“姐妹公园”。以此推动联合国教育人类与青少年注意保护自然生态、保护森林、保护稀有动物、防止地球温化而引起的多种病毒。人类不保护大自然,最后就会得到大自然惩罚,如引发了给人类都带来灾难的“新冠肺炎”。 该倡议函已经在沃尔夫的生日当天提交给联合国分管可持续发展、森林、生物多样性的“联合国社会经济事务部 UNDESA。”
Lester Wolff很激动地在生日庆典上发表感言:从肯尼迪开始到川普,他经历了9任总统,做了八届总统的顾问,和谐促和平是他这一生最大的愿望,上帝让他继续健康的活着并且每日继续忙于维护和平的工作。他的愿望是要看到“中美关系彻底友好、两岸和平彻底实现!”

他倡导中美台都应该为世界安宁与和平重新打“乒乓球”。

希望我们这位老议员的愿景能够梦想成真。
