JUN IS SO RIGHT HERE!!!! we don't only have to celebrate our community heroes when the western world tells them yay 🫥🫥🫥 the work is always happening and often invisible but that doesn't mean it isn't worth recognizing!!!
Not to take away from the awesome Future Class inductees today, but there are 100s of amazing community leaders from Southeast Asia and around Asia who do amazing things to raise the industry every single day. We don't need to rely on one moment in a year to celebrate them all.
