Fwd: Revised Singapore Showcase - brainstroming
HI Everyone Just to get everyone’s head around doing all this again! The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard. First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions? And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore) and Maureen - do we still have Emani’s stuff - maybe we can update it?? And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking. Begin forwarded message:

Dear OC members,
This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Thanks, Silvia, for confirmation.
Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase
Thanks

Hi Everyone
Can we start - please - with a terrific Lion Dance - to take up at least some of the surplus! And possible champagne as part of the drinks?

Dear Siranush et al,
Kindly find attached the updated Budget.
As there is a surplus (approx. US $ 1,371.94) now, APRALO may want to consider having the pins ? or any other promotional materials?
Thank you!

Hi Holly, Thanks for getting the ideas flowing! Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see: http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival/chinese... ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time. An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans (see: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/APRALO+Outreach+Event+Workspace) Kind regards, Silvia Silvia Vivanco Manager, At Large Regional Affairs ICANN | Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers www.icann.org<http://www.icann.org/> From: Holly Raiche [mailto:h.raiche@internode.on.net] Sent: Wednesday, November 05, 2014 7:37 PM To: Siranush Vardanyan; ICANN At-Large Staff; APRALO Subject: Fwd: Revised Singapore Showcase - brainstroming HI Everyone Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!

After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them). We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this).

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase
Thanks

Hi Everyone
Can we start - please - with a terrific Lion Dance - to take up at least some of the surplus! And possible champagne as part of the drinks?

Dear Siranush et al,
Kindly find attached the updated Budget.
As there is a surplus (approx. US $ 1,371.94) now, APRALO may want to consider having the pins ? or any other promotional materials?
Thank you!

Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!
Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see: http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival/chine se-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.
An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans (see: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/APRALO+Outreach+Event+Workspac e)

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase
Thanks

Awesome discussions.. I'm already starting to envisage something fantastic.. as per usual, APRALO team :) The Dikir Barat sounds interesting - I checked it out on wikipaedia - a group singing competition? Involving children would be different.. how long would a performance last, Kuek? Rinalia?

Hi All
Last time we have the red fan. Since it is right before Chinese New Year this time, what about giving out red packets with candies inside as souvenirs to participants?

Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!
Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see: http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival /chine se-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.
An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans (see: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/APRALO+Outreach+Event+Wo rkspac e)
Kind regards, Silvia

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.

I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

Hi Kuek and all, It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality! A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school’s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia. Kindly let me know if more info needed on this. Best regards Suhaidi ISOC-MY

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best

Hi Holly, Siranush, all, We can have it ready once everyone is ok with proceeding, just let us know. I think Suhaidi did mention that his contact needs it within a week though. Also, to add to what I updated during the call - Our local contacts for the Dikir Barat quoted us about US$650 for 10 mins (based on 20 performers), and about US$800 for 20 mins. So with the additional interactive element we talked about (say 10 mins dance and 10 mins interaction/teaching), it should also come up to be around US$800. I will update the entertainment committee once I receive the actual quote (including the interactive element), but thought I’d share the estimate now for the cost comparison. Hope this helps.

Hi Kuek and all,
It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school¹s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.

Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!
Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see:
http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival/c hi ne se-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.
An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans (see:

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

How soon do you need a more formal APRALO leadership approval for this? I assume we can confirm this at the APRALO meeting next week?

Hi Kuek and all,
It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school¹s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.
Best regards

Last time we have the red fan. Since it is right before Chinese New Year this time, what about giving out red packets with candies inside as souvenirs to participants?

Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!
Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see:
http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival/c hi ne se-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.
An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans (see:

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).

Dear Holly, I have already sent an e-mail to Kuek and Suhaidi to start working on the letter (as my e-mails to APRALO mailing list somehow turned out to be empty, I have sent separate letter to them as well). So, both Kuek will help with official invitation, Suhaidi will provide details to him, as well as Suhaidi will talk to principal to identify all other costs related to the travel of this group not to face challenges and us not to be in a wrong position (their accommodation, travel, and other related costs should be taken into consideration by the team itself). But agree that this is really a good idea and if it can work, this will be a really unique entertainment during our showcase. Siranush

So, both Kuek will help with official invitation, Suhaidi will provide details to him, as well as Suhaidi will talk to principal to identify all other costs related to the travel of this group not to face challenges and us not to be in a wrong position (their accommodation, travel, and other related costs should be taken into consideration by the team itself). But agree that this is really a good idea and if it can work, this will be a really unique entertainment during our showcase. Siranush

Hi Kuek - and everyone
This is terrific news. My hand is certainly up in approval for this.
How soon do you need a more formal APRALO leadership approval for this? I assume we can confirm this at the APRALO meeting next week?

It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school¹s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.

Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!
Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see:
http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival/chi ne se-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase
Thanks

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

That would be fantastic. It would also give the students an opportunity to see an ICANN meeting after they perform. Sala On Wed, Nov 12, 2014 at 2:29 AM, Dr. Suhaidi B Hassan <suhaidi@uum.edu.my> wrote:
Hi Kuek and all,
It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school’s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.

Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!
Just a friendly reminder that - as Ariel pointed out - Chinese New Year in 2015 will start on 19 February (see:
http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-festival/chine
se-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.
An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans (see:

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

Hi Kuek and all,
It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school’s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best

Hi Everyone
Can we start - please - with a terrific Lion Dance - to take up at least some of the surplus! And possible champagne as part of the drinks?

Dear Siranush et al,
Kindly find attached the updated Budget.
As there is a surplus (approx. US $ 1,371.94) now, APRALO may want to consider having the pins ? or any other promotional materials?

It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school's Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase

Hi everyone, I think Siranush's main concern is that there is funding to cover such a major expense.. there is a team working on entertainment and no doubt they will be taking this discussion into consideration. But from personal experience, schools are good for running their own fundraisers, so that their students can have such great experiences, and a chance to showcase their talents. I'm sure it is achievable. Perhaps ICANN staff can hold a cake stall ?? (just kidding, Heidi!)

This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase

Indeed, Maureen. I wouldn't like seeing the kids coming so long way and not envisage the expenses for their stay, that is why just warned to check this all out, to avoid any challenges. For the whole group to stay for the ICANN week may be too expensive. Siranush

Hi everyone, I think Siranush's main concern is that there is funding to cover such a major expense.. there is a team working on entertainment and no doubt they will be taking this discussion into consideration.
But from personal experience, schools are good for running their own fundraisers, so that their students can have such great experiences, and a chance to showcase their talents. I'm sure it is achievable. Perhaps ICANN staff can hold a cake stall ?? (just kidding, Heidi!)

That would be fantastic. It would also give the students an opportunity to see an ICANN meeting after they perform.

Hi Kuek and all,
It seems our dream for Dikir Barat performances can become a reality!
A high school principal in my area expressed his willingness to send his school’s Dikir Barat troupe 800+km south to Singapore to perform at the showcase. If we agree, all he need is an official invitation letter from ICANN (in a week time) so that he can obtain the necessary approval (and possibly, funding) from the Ministry of Education Malaysia.
Kindly let me know if more info needed on this.

HI Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard.
First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions?
And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore)
and Maureen - do we still have Emani's stuff - maybe we can update it??
And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

Dear OC members,
This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Thanks, Silvia, for confirmation.
Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase
Thanks

Hi Everyone
Can we start - please - with a terrific Lion Dance - to take up at least some of the surplus! And possible champagne as part of the drinks?

Dear Siranush et al,
Kindly find attached the updated Budget.
As there is a surplus (approx. US $ 1,371.94) now, APRALO may want to consider having the pins ? or any other promotional materials?

The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard. First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions? And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore) and Maureen - do we still have Emani’s stuff - maybe we can update it??
