A point in the history of time...

A great man, an inspiring one indeed..

I am now at a special time in the history of the World Health Assembly. In the Executive Board of the WHO I am sitting in now, we just maintained a minute of silence for the late Dr Lee....

Kofi Annan, UN Secretary General, was today quoted as saying “The world has lost a great man today…history will mark LEE Jong-wook’s many contributions to public health”; a sentiment undoubtedly  shared by those fortunate  to have spoken and worked with this great leader.

By the end of this meeting, we will have a new Directer General for WHO
