On behalf of Pohnpei Chamber of Commerce board of directors and staff, we take great pleasure and pride to submit to you this Fiscal Year 2016 Report for the period ending September 30, 2017. While the Chamber operates on calendar year, the issuance of this Fiscal Year 2017 Report is made to meet the reporting requirements of grant funds provided by the FSM National Government. The Chamber Annual Report for 2017 will be released early next year to cover the period ending December 31, 2017.
We extend special thanks to the FSM National Government for its
support for the private sector through grants to the State chambers of
commerce. We also wish to express our appreciation to all of you who have
supported the Chamber during the many of its turbulent years to keep it
afloat.
Our Chamber is comprised of voluntary members who pay annual
membership fee at the beginning of each calendar year so that as bona fide
members they can participate in any chamber meetings with the right to vote
and engage in other activities during their term of membership. Membership

We seek support and partnership with the FSM and Pohnpei State
Government in providing the much-needed private sector economic development
program for creation of new jobs for people of Pohnpei who are actively
seeking for jobs in the public and private sectors, and generation of
revenue for government.
The Chamber is currently undergoing organizational strengthening
and capacity building to better serve its members and the business community
of Pohnpei. Part of this effort is the ongoing work on the development of a
