We spend a day with Mr. Ted Sakai, General
Manager of Double Tree Hotel Sonoma Wine Country. Ted was 1999 University of
Hawaii, School of Travel Industry Management (TIM School) Distinguished Hall of
Honor Alumni. 1999 was a memorable year. Ted Sakai and Johnson Choi were
inducted into TIM School Hall of Honor in the same year, sharing the honor is
our good friend and now president of the American Chamber of Commerce in
Shanghai, Mrs. Brenda Foster who was inducted in the UH College of Business Hall
of Honor in the same evening. Mrs. Foster is also the founding members and vice
president of the Hong Kong.China.Hawaii Chamber of Commerce. There are a number
of UH TIM Alumni in California such as Rita Lau, General Manager of The Fairmont
San Francisco and Randi Fernandez, F&B Manager of the Four Seasons Hotel at
Newport Beach. When Ted was the President of the T.I.M. International Inc (the
alumni association of the UH School of TIM), TIMI held the graduation exercise
at the Hilton Hawaiian Village - a much preferred venue by most TIM graduates.
The TIM Night that was the heart of soul of the TIM School that used to hold our
alumni together was terminated by the new administration and missed by our
alumni worldwide. The ability of Dean Emeritus Chuck Gee to hold the UH TIM
Alumni worldwide together when he travel the world. Elena Tom, the "mom"
of UH TIM School, Professor Cox (Washington State) and Professor Fox (Las Vegas)
brought back fond memories. I have shared with Ted we need to bring back the
Ohana spirit of the TIM School and find way to re-connect with our alumni
worldwide - bring back TIM Night could be one of the key.
