Dear Ms. Emily, Thank you for your below reply. It’s certainly good news to know that there is a GNOME Users Group from Malaysia! We will try to get in touch with them to find out if they’re interested to collaborate
with us to bring this event to Malaysia. On the other hand, I understand that you required information about support from local industries, universities and government support and also plan for fundraising.
Does it means that local organiser will need to bear all financial commitment/risk? Thank you in advance for your kind advice. Best regards,
From: Emily Chen [mailto:emilychen522 gmail com]
