President's Message

It's my great pleasure to welcome you to the brand-new web site of FIABCI's next Regional Congress, to be held at the Sheraton Waikiki in Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.A., from 23 to 25 October 2008.

This will be the first time in FIABCI's history that two of FIABCI's regions, the Americas and Asia-Pacific, combine their resources to organize a Regional Congress. With this Regional Congress, East will meet West as members from all the nations of the Pacific Rim and beyond, congregate in one of the most symbolic and enjoyable destinations in the Pacific: the Hawaiian Islands.

The phenomenal growth of real estate in these two FIABCI Regions, and the rapidly changing patterns in the flow of financing across the Pacific, will be just two of the subjects presented by international experts in the contexts of real estate panoramas and conferences that FIABCI is planning. Hawaiian members of FIABCI U.S.A. are already planning study tours of innovative mixed-use developments in Honolulu and the surrounding area. As for the legendary hospitality of the Hawaiian Islands, it needs no introduction.

Meet me in Hawaii next October - FIABCI will make it worth your while!

With my very best regards,

Luis Fernando Correa-Bahamon
World President
2008 - 2009
