     To:                All DOI Employees

     Subject:   Asian Pacific American Heritage Month 
     
     May has been designated as Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month, and 
     during this month we honor the sacrifice, self-discipline, courage and 
     commitment of Asian Americans.  The theme for this year's celebration 
     is "Asian Pacific American - One Vision, One Mission, One Voice."  
     
     Our American heritage is a mixture of many cultures, and our nation's 
     strength lies in our inherent ability to absorb the best attributes of 
     each group.  As proud Americans, it is essential for us to reflect on 
     the various cultures that have helped to shape of our national 
     experience.  The Department has a special link to Asian and Pacific 
     Americans through our close association with the American territories, 
     most of which are in the Pacific.
       
     I strongly encourage all employees to participate in ceremonies, 
     celebrations, and other activities associated with Asian Pacific 
     American Heritage Month.
