Once again, the Spouses Head of Mission (Shom) group organized a very successful event at Pardon My French restaurant where several ambassadors displayed their talent all for a good cause. Bravos, among others, go to Singapore Ambassador Gerard Ho who belted several popular ditties, Thai Ambassador Tull Traisorat who sang songs from 'Notting Hill,' Argentinian Ambassador Ricardo Bocalandro — together with his guitar — who sang several fast numbers, and the wife of Brazilian Ambassador with her danceable Brazilian songs like 'The Girl from Ipanema.'

Also in attendance were Gherns Calina, Brazil Ambassador's wife Gisela Zincone, Emil Pyykkö, and Irish Ambassador William Carlos. But the star of the night was New Zealand Ambassador Peter Keller who sang Tagalog songs and was well applauded. He also did a group finale performance with the other ambassadors.
