Role in the Community

  • 2013–2016 — 會長, 北美臺灣客家公共事務協會 (Taiwan Hakka Association for Public Affairs in North America, HAPA-NA) — named in the association’s own presidential roster in [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys252-eng|Our Journeys #252 (HAPA-NA, William Wei)]]; the association’s member-written account is authored by him: 2017 (band A community history).
  • In his own authored history of HAPA-NA (English version: [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys290-eng|Our Journeys #290 (EN)]]): founded with 48 founding members whose $200 fees formed the operating budget (fee later $50/year); roughly 100 members joined over time, including most leaders of North American Hakka associations; all members and officers serve as volunteers; the 1991–2016 presidential line runs Chiou-Hung Chen → Albert Jen-Yih Chu → Po-shih Chung → Joyce Weng → Chen-sheng Chung → Clyde Kiang → Pao C. Hsu → William Wei → David Lai → Chanchi Lee → Frank M. Hsu (deepen-x 09220800-31, corpus-sourced from his own account).
  • 2015-09 — profiled in the TAH Foundation Who’s Who record 09.
  • HOLD: name collision — 335. Frank Hsu (許子津), first president of the Formosan Club Association of Chicago, is a different Frank Hsu; do not merge. Corroborated by [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys255|Our Journeys #255]], which names “Frank Hsu (1954—56)” as the Formosan Club Association’s first president — same 許子津-era figure, not this 徐民忠 (deepen-x 10060911-2).
  • HOLD: second name collision — 2017-06-28 is 許德標, a different Frank Hsu; the work page’s subject link to this person is a false entity match; do not merge. (2026-09-21 corpus check.)
