One of the fundemental reasons the WFTGA was founded was to combat unqualified guiding worldwide. The WFTGA was successful in having Amateurguides.com website removed, which were promoting unqualifed guides. However, after discussions with the webmaster and explaining things clearly the webmaster decided to start another website and this time work with the WFTGA. 

WFTGA has just concluded its 11th Convention in Melbourne, Australia. A new Executive Board was elected. The General Assembly voted on the next convention site – it will be Cairo Egypt in 2007! 

The following colleagues will work as the new Executive Board Members: 

Rosalind Newlands Edinburgh, Scotland UK – Vice President

Houri Nazeritian Oshawa, Canada – Secretary

Johnny Lee Hong Kong, China – Treasurer

Aladdin Khalifa Cairo, Egypt – Executive Board Member

Koula Vassiliou Nicosia, Cyprus – Executive Board Member

Serif Yenen Istanbul, Turkey – Executive Board Member

As president, I am delighted as the entire board is composed of people whom. 

I have worked with over the past years. We will put all our efforts into accomplishing quite a bit for you – our members!
