Hi all! Its me, the skinhead guitar-playing DRR from Singapore! How have you all been doing? I hope this message finds you well!

I would like to take this opportunity to announce as Organising Chairman that our Special Early Bird (SGD270) will be extended to end of July. So hurry now to sign up today! We have an exciting program line up for you, I'm sure you do not want to miss such an opportunity to meet up with old friends and make new ones as well!

I do understand some concerns about the recent H1N1 flu situation from the various inquiries. I would like to assure you that Singapore has got it under control, as we can see that the Asian Youth Games has gone on successfully, at the same venue that we will be holding the APRRC 2009. In fact, we are already looking forward to the upcoming Formula 1 night race as well as the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics.

If you require flight promotional discount information, please refer to our blog within the next few days. We have gone around to source for the best rates for you to book your flights in so that you do not have to burn a hole in the pocket for your airfares. Some pre and post conference hotel rates will also be provided should you wish to extend your stay in Singapore. It is also a good chance to visit Malaysia after the conference since its so nearby. I'm sure my fellow Rotaractors in the Malaysia from District 3310 and 3300 would be happy to show you around.

On behalf of the entire APRRC 2009 committee, I would like to thank you in advance for participating in this wonderful event and showing your support. Meanwhile, a very Happy New Rotary/Rotaract Year to all of you!
