If you would like to spend a fantastic 2 weeks, learning from those who are very calibre, do consider joining Southeast Asian Service Leadership Network (SEALNet). The deadline is coming very soon. Heard that Malaysia deadline might be postponed till 3rd April, but do apply now!

The organizing committee is also looking for anyone (especially those who are familiar with Kuala Selangor) to help out with logistic etc. Last year, Nicholas Pang, Gianne and Pui Yee did a great job in Kota Kinabalu!

Another area the organizing committee is looking at would be to get sponsorship to sustain the cost of the event. If anyone can donate/sponsor to them, do let me know. Will link you with them.

Would encourage any of my blog readers to share with me any event that you come across. As long as the event/activity/initiative is education/charity/youth oriented and is not-for-profit, I would be more than happy to post it to share

Feel free to quote any post within my blog, as long as you link it back here. Sharing is always a good virtue. :)
