                        HONORING JUAN JOSE MALO

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Juan Jose Malo 
on his retirement as the president of Miami's Ecuadorian-American 
Chamber of Commerce.
  Juan Jose has tirelessly worked to help the Ecuadorian American-owned 
and -operated businesses in south Florida to prosper, to thrive, and to 
grow. And he has always demonstrated his trademark diligence by 
enthusiastically advocating on behalf of all of south Florida's 
business community.
  Juan Jose's generosity has also pushed the Ecuadorian-American 
Chamber of Commerce to undertake seven medical and humanitarian 
missions to Ecuador and one to the Dominican Republic.
  Juan Jose specifically has sought to bring attention to the plight of 
the Ecuadorian people by founding the magazine ``Revista Remesa,'' 
ensuring that our community had the latest political and economic news 
about Ecuador.
  Juan Jose, congratulations on your years of leadership. We know that 
you will continue your stellar work on behalf of all of south 
Floridians and the entire Ecuadorian American community.
