10th Biennial JAINA Convention
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
June 16, 1999
Dear Friends:
I am honored to have this opportunity to send my personal greetings to the participants and distinguished guests at the 10th Biennial JAINA Convention. While I regret that I am unable to join you for this special occasion, I do want to offer my best wishes for a successful and productive event.
I especially want to recognize your outstanding organizations for the efforts you are making for the second generation of Jains. I applaud the efforts of Federation of JAINA and the Samarpan Jain Sangh to transcend all barriers of region and creed to bring this convention to the historic city of Philadelphia. Diversity is this nation's most valued attribute. The success of this country has been built upon the unique contributions of every racial and ethnic group. Certainly, this convention is an excellent opportunity to explore ideas and to further enhance interest in and involvement with the issues facing the Jain community and our nation.
Once again, please accept my best wishes along with my warmest hopes for your continuing success in the years to come.
