Alpha Phi Omega-USA was aware from the begining that Alpha Phi Omega Philippines was coming into existance. Representatives from APO Philippines were present at the 1950 APO-USA National Convention (Less than a year after the formation of the APO-RP) and were introduced by the APO-USA National Officers to the Convention at large at one of the Banquets.
Although we (APO-USA & APO-RP) have walked slightly different paths when it comes to our relationships with our local Scouting organizations, our opening to women and our relationships with other Greek Letter Organizations in the respective countries, I am proud to call each of them my Brother and Sister (Brod & Sis).
On the Alpha Phi Omega National website,
www.apo.org , select National Programs and then under that, International Relations. That should give a good amount of information. Unfortunately the pages have not been updated with the effort in Australia, but I'll nudge them...
Yours in Leadership, Friendship and Service
