History ----- 08.08.08

University of Newcastle had started one of their partnerships with local institution which offered programs ie MBA, Master in Marketing, Master in Human Resources. In year 2002, many students had completed and graduated. These group of friends, initiated an idea to form an alumni under the name of the University. It was not a smooth organizing at that point of time. In fact, a protem committees was formed. However, due to work committments, some committees had resigned. Ms Lai Tze May was one of the committees and she has been the contact person for the University, Australia Education International (AEI) and The Malaysian Australian Alumni Council (MAAC) since then.

They were few senior officers from the University been visiting Malaysia to discuss on the formation of the alumni since 2002. However, that was only in April 2007, when a phone call of visit by Ms. Rosemary Thomson, that was when the Malaysia Chapter was discussed, application submitted to the Registrar and finally was successfully approved on 8 August 2008 (08.08.08) !
