CUMaSKini Header

1st February 2015

Dear all,

It is the first day of February already. Time flies doesn’t it?

Today’s issue of CUMaSKini is *probably* one of the most important CUMaS newsletters ever received. Looking at the list below there are a lot of important announcements to make and we wish that you do take some time to read this email. They all contain major events and happenings that only happen annually such as our highlight event the Malaysian Night 2015 and the Annual General Meeting, when the current 2014/2015 committee will be passing the torch to the lovely juniors.

Other cool updates include the release of our official CUMaS 2015 sweater so do check it out! Since Chinese New Year is around the corner we have also organised a CUMaS Chinese New Year Lunch for us all to celebrate the Year of the Goat with friends (at least) 🙂

Yang masih di sini,
