1. MASCA NCG BRISBANE

Dear Victorians,

Last year, Malaysian students studying in Australia had an excellent time during MASCA National Conference and Games (NCG) 2007 that was held in Melbourne. Victoria gloriously won second place. This year, we are proud to announce that MASCA National Conference and Games (NCG) for 2008 will be held in Brisbane, Queensland. It will be a four-day event starting from 1st - 4th July 2008.

Malaysian students from all over Australia will congregate in Brisbane over the winter holidays to take part in various sporting events, the MASCA annual general meeting and a fabulous masquerade ball as the traditional end of the NCG where winners are celebrated, MASCA Idol is contested and everyone gets a chance to eat, drink and be merry.

This year, Victoria will be sending 170 athletes to represent this state and compete in various sports including Frisbee, Sepak Takraw, and Athletics. Together, we will strive for the champion title. We welcome supporters to support our contingent.

There are four packages on offer (please refer“Packages-2.pdf”):

Package 1 (Athlete + Accommodation): AUD 250 - Accommodation, Games Participation, Food, Ball, Merchandise

Package 2 (Athlete + No Accommodation): AUD 150 - Games Participation, Food, Ball, Merchandise

Package 3 (Supporter + Accommodation): AUD 240 - Accommodation, Food, Ball, Merchandise

Package 4 (Supporter + No Accommodation): AUD 140 - Food, Ball, Merchandise

If you would like to be a supporter of the Victoria’s team, please provide your full name, email, phone number and package you prefer to masca_vic@yahoo.com

These packages are offered by MASCA Brisbane and do not include flight tickets. Return flights are estimated to be AUD250-300. Feel free to buy your own flight ticket; just notify MASCA Victoria beforehand. The prices will be subsidized, but the amount is not finalized yet, as it depends on the amount of sponsorship that we obtain. If you would like to help find sponsors, we have prepared a draft. Feel free to edit it to suit your purpose.
