APRALO spirit - this is how it calls:))) All your input is welcomed and ideas are appreciated, so, let's brainstorm via e-mail if any suggestions come and we will finalize during our monthly call on November 25th. Yannis, your suggestion for souvenirs, can you give estimated price for this and if possible can you send a picture to have an idea? Any other ideas for souvenirs to participants?? - please, if you have suggestions, provide with details, price, picture and/or potential sponsors whom you think we can apply for funding. Any ALS would like to give out something special??? - bring your ideas here and we will compile, summarise and provide the final feedback. We are ALL ONE TEAM - APRALO, so, let's once again prove and show to the whole world that by CELEBRATING DIVERSITY we want to show how united we are!!! Best Siranush

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?

Kuek,
I had no idea you like Dikir Barat. I come from a place where Dikir Barat is indigenous to my culture, so I find it an intriguing proposal. :)

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)

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

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

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 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
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

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
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

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 Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up
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
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
vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

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?

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

Kuek,
I had no idea you like Dikir Barat. I come from a place where Dikir Barat is indigenous to my culture, so I find it an intriguing proposal. :)

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:

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 Everyone
Just to get everyone's head around doing all this again!
The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up
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
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
vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

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
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
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

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!

Like said Sala… it would be any Asia Pacific concept which reflect our (Asian-Australasian-Pacific region) way of life style.

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.

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.

I was thinking why we do not look in to a talented people in different activity outside the dancing or signing area. I am sure there is the *Singapore or Asia got Talent program* and we can try to reach any of those unique talents with the help of Singapore team. That is what I have though of for the time being.

I like Ali's suggestion regarding 'got talent' and it can not necessarily be a singer or a dancer, there must be other talented participants within this program. Lianna On Fri, November 7, 2014 1:04 am, Ali AlMeshal wrote:

Good to see the lively participation on the cultural front! Subject to budget and time constraints, it may be good to consider a theme such as 'Celebrating Diversity' for the cultural event...if so, we may need a mix of traditional art forms of the region. satish On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 4:31 PM, Lianna Galstyan <lianna@magic.am> wrote:

Atlhough I loved Sala's idea about the Pacific dancers there will no doubt be other opportunities. and someone else's budget J But maybe because it's out of the square I liked Ali's suggestion to check out Asia's most recent big time talent quest.. and not necessarily singing and dancing, Raf J What else is there? I just so love these discussions. M From: Holly Raiche [mailto:h.raiche@internode.on.net] Sent: Thursday, 6 November 2014 10:51 a.m. To: Salanieta T.
