FEBRUARY 2010    
GM Trân, Trieu Quan is still among the missing in Haiti.
January 31, 2010
From
www.tkd-itf.org
"We are still without news concerning our President, Grand Master Tran. There is no way to tell how much longer it will take before we get any. On day 15 a young girl was found in the rubble of a building. It was incredible, but she had been able to survive 15 days without eating and drinking. This helps to maintain hope.

The recovery phase is under way at the Hotel Montana, but some search and rescue teams are still working on the hotel site. It might take many days for them work through the rubble. We are still hopeful for a miracle.

In accordance with the ITF constitution, the Board have now appointed Senior Vice-President, Grand Master Pablo Trajtenberg to the role of Acting President. GM Trajtenberg will oversee the governance of ITF at this most difficult time. The Board wishes to thank GM Trajtenberg for fulfilling this role."

Grand Master Trân
in Port-au Prince
January 18, 2010
Grand Master Trân was in Port-au-Prince on business when the earthquake struck Haiti last Tuesday. He was staying at the Montana Hotel (room 306).

Grand Master Trân was seen going to his room 10 minutes before the earthquake.
“My husband is trapped in the rubbles of the Montana Hotel and our family is still awaiting news from the rescue teams", Mrs My Nguyen Tran, his wife, said this morning.
  Dr. Janel Gauthier, former Chair of the ITF Ethics and Discipline Committee and close friend of the Tran family, stated: "Taekwon-do practitioners all over the world are hoping that Grand Master Trân will be found alive and well very soon. Their thoughts and their hearts go to his family. Many Taekwon-do Masters, Instructors and practitioners from the Americas are deploying tremendous energy and using all possible channels and tools of communication to get vital information to the multi-national professional rescue teams to locate Grand Master Trân in the rubble of the Montana Hotel. Others are rounding health and sanitation stations in Haiti and neighbouring countries in case Grand Master Trân has been evacuated without identification".

"I thank all of those who are working the medias and the web, searching for information or spreading information on my father and his possible location",
said Grand Master Trân's daughter Joliette.

Grand Master Trân is the father of Joliette (6th degree black belt), Cécilia and Nicolas (4th degree black belt).
