WUB Hawaii is one of the many chapters that make up WUB Network. Every year the Board of Directors meet to make decisions about the running of WUB. In addition to holding business meetings, WUB Network also use the time to do business tours, recognize the accomplishments of WUB members, and have fun!
The Hawaii delegation consisted of Bob Nakasone, Steve Miyashiro, Gregg Takara, and Yumi Inamine.
Below are some pictures taken by WUB Network board member, Flavio Minei, of their August 4-6 meeting in São Paolo, Brazil. Obrigado Flávio! It may come as a surprise to some that the Uchinanchu community in Brazil is larger than the one in Hawaii. Where Hawaii’s Uchinanchu population is 50,000, Brazil’s Uchinanchu population is 187,000. The Brazil Uchinanchu community is definitely much livlier and energetic. It has been said that the future of the Uchinanchu diaspora can be seen in Brazil.
