Good point Holly.. Hopefully the Asia Pac Hub could consider getting Pacific cultural performers into the Opening Day...so we can start to see some of the Pac in the Asia Pac. But as for the APRALO, I certainly agree Holly we should work within our Budget. What's our budgetary allocation? On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 9:50 AM, Holly Raiche <h.raiche@internode.on.net> wrote:
I'm not sure I agree with Raf's no dancing, but the Dikir Barat idea does provide something both Asian and different.
And Sala - I don't think the budget would go to flying in dancers from wherever. I loved seeing the dancers in the cook Islands when I was there - but getting them to Singapore would not be cheap, and I think we should start with our budget - funds we have and funds we could realistically raise.

Dear All,
Since Singapore is home to most Asian diaspora - I think we can get some performers to do one entertainment piece that features:
- Tamil Dancers; - Chinese; - Malay; - Pacific dancers (either Cook Islands/Samoa/PNG);
ICANN should fly in some dancers from Rarotonga, Cook Islands so that people can have a taste of Asia Pacific.
Kind Regards,
Sala
