Chill-Out Night + EGM (Extraordinary General Meeting)

Wednesday 12 August at Red Mansion, Boat Quay 7pm.

We are really hoping for a big turnout – there are some changes we need to make to our constitution (mainly administrative) which will help with the better functioning of our Association.

We really need a quorum of 30 members, so please come along and see other graduates and friends… and enjoy the refreshments. We believe the EGM will be short.

At this event, included for members are:

Good food
AND
One drink voucher per member (for wine or beer)
AND
1:1 happy hour (7pm-9pm) on wine (good quality house wine) and beer (five labels of beer – draft and bottled), 50% off other drinks by the glass
AND
Live entertainment from 9pm
AND
No entrance fee.

If you are a UNSW graduate but are not sure if you are a member of the Singapore Chapter, please sign up beforehand (by sending your particulars to Kevin Lim, Communications officer kevin.lim@unswalumni.com, including your UNSW programme) or come along to the AGM and sign up. Membership is free!

2006 Asia New College Alumni reunion dinner in Singapore

More details...

----------------------------------------------------------------

"Equipping tomorrow’s leaders in business and government" The law and its learning in business and government leadership

Why do markets and societies where the rule of law dominates have an edge over others?

In business environments, how often do you find that someone else seems to know something of legal issues, structures and principles and you would do better if you did?

How can a better knowledge of the law equip any market, any industry and any society and its government?

Come and dine with us, spend some time with fellow alumni and hear Professor Leon Trakman (Dean of Faculty of Law of one of the region’s leading law schools, well-known educator, internationally recognised thought leader in his field, and expert practitioner) use rich illustrations to provide fascinating and highly relevant insights into these issues.
