DG.Dr.Sanguan Kunaporn
D 3330 RI, Thailand
16. Introduction
I am a District 3330 Governor from Phuket, Thailand. My
career is a Plastic surgeon.
During the past whole year, I have almost not done any
operation, just focus on how to make my District more
contemporary and cove with one of Rotary International
strategy.
That is an effort to incorporate several digital tools into
Club and District Administration.
It is expected that with this change, the communication
between Club , District and RI will be more effective and
the organization looks modern and more attractive to new

18. RI’s Move
RI has forced all Governors to report the Formal
club visits and rating the clubs via Rotary club
central.
So do all Assistant Governors, they need not to
send paper reports of the clubs to Governors any
longer. Instead, they have to rate the clubs and
make comment via Rotary club central.
All Club Presidents are encouraged to put the
data, set the goal of membership development,
Service project and Fund giving through Rotary
club central also.
19.
20. Limitation
My District 3330 is one of the 4 Districts in Thailand.
There are only 3 English speaking Clubs from 97 Clubs.
Most of the Assistant Governor, Club presidents and
secretaries are able to communicate in English very little.
Just some of them have adequate computer skill, only half
of them seldom use email.
If there is no input from these leaders, I have no data for
planning and follow up.
21. iDistrict vision&strategy
So I and future DGs have launched the 3 years
District vision and strategy to tackle this problem.
Inspired by the modern gadgets like iPhone, iPad
that everyone seem to be familiar with, we name
our vision and strategy as iDistrict.

29. The Turning point
During every 90+ District Governor’s formal
club visits, several web-based tools like

demonstrated.
DG walked through these tools with the Club
Presidents, Secretaries, and other Club
leaders to learn how to use it.
DG can access to every Clubs account in
Rotary club Central and input data by approval
of the Club Presidents.
