I WANT TO GOOOOO. BUT-------------------------------------------------------------
1) Hey Guys!
Great to see that all of you are really interested in going for the Myanmar CIP! (; Trust me it is a great experience.
Okay I know many of you guys want more details, so we are preparing a circular for all of you that you can take and read and learn more about the trip. The circular will be ready by Monday, so please meet me at the
parade square (where we have assembly) at 7 20 am. Please do not forget, and if it is too early for you, then please inform me by smsing or calling me at 91502069 (:
First off, I'll give you some details about the trip. For ISL, your parents would have to be PAACT Members. It's not a very tedious process, all you got to do is fill up a form. I will pass it to you on Monday as well.
1. The trip is from
14-21 March, and you will get
more than 70 hours of CIP for the trip alone. That's more than sufficient for an entire year :D You will also get hours for working during the pre-preparation phase, so in total, the number of CIP hours will be very large!
2. Once the team is confirmed, which should be by end Jan, we will have weekly meetings,
every Saturday. All of you will get an opportunity to work on matters such as creating a handbook, and performing cultural items! All admin matters and monetary issues are already settled, so it will not be very hassling for you guys. No worries (:
3. You will
only have to pay about
500-600 dollars. This includes your
air ticket, insurance and VISA expenses. All lodging, food and travel have already been sponsored. This is a pretty small amount compared to other trips!
4. All of us in the organizing team are really hoping that this trip will be a success. For this, we need to get about
22 students. So try to
get your friends involved in this trip as well, working along with your friends in such CIP is always an awesome experience (;
5. Lastly, I AM REALLY SORRY but
JH1s are too young to participate in this trip ): Don't worry though, there will be another one next year, and you'll be able to participate then! My apologies.
So guys, dont hesitate to commit tothe trip! I've gone for it and I can tell you that the trip is a gret experience-you really learn about yourself and about the poverty stricken people in Myanmar.
If you guys have any enquiries, please sms or email me. If not, see you
Monday at 7 20 am at the parade square (;
Have a good weekend,
Arthi Anbalagan
