CHIANG MAI, October 23, 2009 –The Signis World Congress held its Assembly of Delegates meeting on 22nd and 23rd, October, 2009. Fr. Ambrose Pereira sdb has been elected President of SIGNIS Pacific.
Fr. Ambrose arrived in the Solomon Islands in 1999, as Director of Catholic Communications Solomons. He has been involved in the production of programmes for SIBC, the National network and articles for the Solomon Star. He is responsible for raising the standard of Voice Katolika, the quarterly newspaper for the Catholic Church of Solomon Islands.
Over the years he has organized and conducted several Media Education programmes in different dioceses in the Solomon Islands and Papa New Guinea.

It has also encouraged them to network in media for a value-based society.”

SIGNIS Pacific strives to network to bring the culturally diverse populations together through the use of media.
