  Mr. HASTINGS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Bangladesh 
Association of Florida. For 24 years, this fine organization has 
presented the Asian Food Fair & Cultural Show in Palm Beach County. 
This annual program is eagerly awaited by citizens around South Florida 
for its exciting and diverse performances of singing, dancing, 
acrobatics and food from many Asian nations.
  Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to have been involved with the people of 
the Bangladesh Association of Florida since the inception of this 
wonderful program. It is one of the cultural highlights of every year. 
It is widely appreciated and greatly enjoyed by everyone who 
experiences its variety of entertainment. We are fortunate to have it 
on our schedule of great events, and I thank the Bangladesh Association 
for bringing it to us.
