Dear UCAM Members and UC Alumni,

Forming UCAM was an important achievement, and we would now like to engage more with UCAM Members and with UC Alumni, from the young to the not so young!

The University of Canterbury has recently confirmed their support for UCAM employing a part-time Executive Officer, preferably an Alumni Member, and a delegation from the University is expecting to visit Kuala Lumpur in August 2009.

We have recently received the latest Alumni list of almost 1,000, and there are 431 with email addresses.

Dear Canterbury Alumni Friends,

Registration is now closed.

The University of Canterbury Alumni Malaysia (UCAM), was established in 2002. This was an important step, as we are registered with the Registrar of Societies as a nationwide organization.

Happy Chinese New Year to all the alumni members. For many of our members who are celebrating the new year starting on Monday the 26th January, "Gong Xi Fa Cai" and may the new year bring happiness and good fortune to all. Let's see the year of the sturdy Ox brings some good returns for all the hard work in the coming year.

Welcome to 2009! We left a memorable 2008 and look forward to a 2009 being a good year. To all our members, we look forward to your participation in UCAM to make this a great year for UCAM as we look forward to a closer cooperation with the administrators of the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand.

We wish all the alumni members a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
