Bowling<div style="text-align: justify;">Too much eating and holidays in February. Perhaps little exercise would be nice to energize again for the body and soul. And Bowling Competition has came to the right time! The game took place at Sunway Pyramid and kick off at 5pm. Surprise to see that many members played well and some has been really really serious in this sport!! The game was well ended at 7:30pm. We'll see you again in the coming activities with your active participation!<br />

<br />
Here are some highlights on what happened on 21 November 2009! If you've read our blog or emails from UoN Alumni Office, yes, it was a talk by Associate Professor Amir Mahmood and followed by AGM.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The topic presented has brought us to the insight of global recession and the impact to Malaysia economy. It was interesting to know how the spiral effect on global financial melt down could impact Malaysia directly and indirectly to some industries. Prof. Amir has touched issues such as the causes of financial crisis; risk to banks, consumers and investors; credit squeeze; confidence level on households and businesses; spending power; declining on commodities price; and world output and econimic growth. With all these, he has brought into some statistics from Malaysia perspectives, which showed some comparative figures on the changed and improved industries in Malaysia. Also, he highlighted on the certain measures that has been implemented by Malaysia government to curb with this global issue.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you did not attend this session, you must have missing something that was valuable and interesting presentation from UoN!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you wish to contact Prof. Amir, you can send an email at <a href="mailto:Amir.Mahmood@newcastle.edu.au">Amir.Mahmood@newcastle.edu.au</a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div align="justify" style="text-align: justify;">After the talk, the Chapter proceeded with AGM. As the elected President and Honorary Secretary in the last EGM ie 25 November 2008, had resigned due to work committment. Therefore, the vacant positions have to be replaced with an election in this AGM. The elected new committees are:</div><div align="justify" style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div align="justify" style="text-align: justify;">President: Vincent Tiew Soon Thung</div><div align="justify" style="text-align: justify;">Vice President: Nicole Lim Sui Yee</div><div align="justify" style="text-align: justify;">Honorary Secretary: Jessica Yim Lye Lye</div><div align="justify" style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">On the Chapter membership status, the total members as at 20 November 2009 was 59, ie 15 life members and 44 ordinary members.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">On activities done for 2009, all have been uploaded in this blog and what is going to take place in 2010, don't forget to log on to this blog next month to see all the line up in "Coming Events".</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Prof. Amir has expressed his great support for the alumni. He supported one of the proposed activities ie campus tour where he suggested a workshop to be held in UoN campus. His faculty will support and fund for this workshop. If you want to attend, remember to check it out the details with us.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">With all these, the day has well ended!</div><br />

<strong>AUIAC 2008</strong><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">AUIAC or The Australian Universities International Alumni Convention was a bi-annual conference that brings together Australian Alumni from around the world. The idea of this convention was to provide opportunities for alumni to network and listen to known speakers sharing their thoughts on current world issues. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">AUIAC was conceived in 1995 at Annual General Meeting of the Australian Universities Alumni Council held in Adelaide, Australia. The first AUIAC was held in Adelaide in 1998, followed by Kuching, Malaysia in 2000; Melbourne, Australia 2002; Hong Kong in 2004, Brisbane, Australia in 2006, and Singapore in 2008. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The convention has been a success under the leadership of the Right Honourable Pehin Sri Dr Haji Adbul Taib Mahmud, Chief Minister of Sarawak, Malaysia. An eminent alumnus of the University of Adelaide, Australia. Pehin Sri Taib has been the Patron of AUIAC since its inception together with the Governor General of Australia as Joint Patron.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">And in conjunction with this AUIAC, The University of Newcastle had gathered 15 graduates from ten different regions to participate in this event. Follow with a workshop for Chapters and was successfully held in UoN Singapore campus on 14 June 2008.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The next AUIAC will be held in Kuching, Sarawak in 2011 and follow by UoN workshop for Chapters.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">We’ll see you there!<br />
