ka ʻAhahui Huakaʻi Pākīpika Asia (PATA) ua neʻe i ka neʻe wiwo ʻole e hana i nā loli nui i ka hoʻolālā ʻana o kāna aupuni hoʻonohonoho ma ka hālāwai o ka Papa i hala iho nei a me ka hālāwai nui makahiki i mālama ʻia ma ʻOkakopa 12 a me 14.

I nā makahiki ʻekolu i hala iho nei, e loiloi ana ʻo PATA i nā hiʻohiʻona hoʻonohonoho alakaʻi a ke kūkākūkā nei me ka lehulehu o ka poʻe loea e hana i kahi hoʻolālā e hoʻololi a hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ka ʻAhahui no nā hopena kūpono a me ke komo pū ʻana. ʻO nā loli nui kahi neʻe mai kahi Papa i koho ʻia i kahi Papa i koho ʻia e nā lālā āpau i hoʻoliʻiliʻi nui ʻia i ka nui, me ka hoʻohui ʻia me kahi Papa Hoʻokele i hōʻemi ʻia a koho piha ʻia.

ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona kūikawā o ka hoʻolālā hou kahi neʻe mai kahi lehulehu o nā kōmike i ka Fort Task Force (ETF), e huki ana i ka ʻike hohonu a me ka ʻike ma loko o ka pūnaewele PATA e hoʻoponopono i nā pilikia hoihoi i ka ʻAhahui a me ka ʻoihana. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā ETF e nānā i kahi hana kikoʻī i loko o kahi manawa i kuhikuhi ʻia a haʻalele ʻia i ka pau ʻana. E hoʻokumu ʻia nā ETF hou ma nā pilikia hou ke ala aʻe lākou. ʻO ka pahuhopu ka mea e hiki ai i ka hana ikaika o nā lālā i nā hana hōʻeuʻeu a kūpono hoʻi e kākoʻo i ke kumu o PATA o ka kōkua ʻana i ka hoʻomohala kuleana o ka huakaʻi a me ka mākaʻikaʻi ma ka ʻĀkia Pacific wahi.

I ka makahiki i hala aku nei, ua hoʻokumu ʻia ʻekolu mau ETF pailaka me nā hopena ikaika. Ua kōkua nā ETF ʻelua i ka papa a kōkua i ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka PATA Crisis Resource Center a me ka Monitor Recovery Monitor, i hoʻolālā ʻia e kākoʻo i nā lālā ma o nā pilikia o ka maʻi maʻi COVID-19 a kōkua i ka hoʻoponopono hou ʻana. Ke hana nei kahi ETF hou i kēia manawa e kōkua i ke kuhi i ka wā e hiki mai ana o PATA i kahi kūlana COVID-19 e hoʻonui i nā pono no nā lālā o ka Hui i kēia manawa a me ka wā e hiki mai ana.

E like me ka mea i hoʻomaopopo ʻia e ka noho mua o Dr. Chris Bottrill, ka mea nāna i kiaʻi i ka hana hou ʻana o ke aupuni i kona noho ʻana ma ke ʻano he Noho, "Manaʻo wau ʻo nā hālāwai i kēlā pule aku nei he manawa nui ia no PATA. Ma o ka hana a nā alakaʻi hoʻolaʻa a me ka hoʻokomo o nā lālā, ua hana mākou i kahi hoʻolālā hou e kūkulu i ka hoʻoilina o PATA a hoʻonohonoho iā mākou no ka ulu ʻana, ka hopena a me ka holomua. He manawa haʻaheo no ke kaiāulu PATA i ʻapo i ka loli me ka pahuhopu o ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i ka ʻAhahui i kēia manawa a no ka wā e hiki mai ana. "

Hoʻololi nā hoʻololi i ka hoʻolālā hoʻonohonoho a ka ʻahahui a me ka hoʻoponopono piha ʻana o kāna mau lula i kona noho aupuni ʻana me ke kaulike me nā hana ʻoihana maʻamau. No nā hui e kūleʻa a hoʻomau i ka pilina i loko o kahi honua uila e hoʻonui nei, pono e wikiwiki ʻo PATA e like me nā ʻoihana e lawelawe ai. No laila, hoʻolālā ʻia ka hanana hou e hiki ai i kahi leo no nā lālā āpau. ʻO nā ETF me ka Papa, Papa Hoʻokele, a me nā hoʻolālā Management e paipai i ka hana nui ʻana a nā lālā ma o ka 'micro-volunteering' ma o ka kōkua ʻana i nā manaʻo 'nahu' i nā pilikia e pili ana i nā lālā, ʻoiai e hōʻoia ana e pili ana ka papa kuhikuhi, pili manawa, ikaika, hana, a me ka pono no nā mea āpau nā ʻoihana. Mālama ʻo PATA i kāna hoʻoilina o kahi kaiāulu ikaika a me ke kaulike o nā lālā o ka lehulehu a me nā ʻāpana pilikino i ka hoʻolālā hou, akā e hoʻololi nā hoʻololi i ka komo ʻana o nā lālā i mea e hoʻonui ai i ke kaulike a me ka ʻokoʻa i nā ʻano āpau o ke aupuni a me ka hana.

Hoʻohui ʻo PATA Chair Soon-Hwa Wong, "I ka honua VUCA, ʻo ka mea hiki ke hoʻomaʻamaʻa maikaʻi ʻo ia ka mea e ola a ola. I mea e kōkua ai i ka loli maoli, pono mākou e hemo i nā pale āpau a me nā mea pale. Ma waho o ka makemake hui, pono mākou e hoʻonohonoho i kahi ʻano hoʻomalu kūpono e hana ai me nā ʻike ʻole he nui e hiki mai ana. ʻAʻohe manawa kūpono no ka loli. Pono pono ka hoʻolālā hou ʻana i kahi hoʻolālā a ʻaʻole ia he mea maikaʻi, inā e alakaʻi ʻo PATA i ka ʻoihana i ka wā e hiki mai ana. A ʻo ka wā e hiki mai ana i kēia manawa !. "

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:

A unique feature of the new design is a shift from an expansive array of committees to Expert Task Forces (ETFs), which draw upon the deep knowledge and experience within the PATA network to address issues of interest to the Association and the industry.
PATA will retain its legacy of a strong community and a balance of public and private sector members in the new design, but the changes will enable broader participation of members to facilitate greater equity and diversity in all aspects of governance and operation.
A new ETF is currently in process to help envision the future of PATA in a post COVID-19 environment to maximize benefits for current and future members of the Association.
