2009 Special Issue

One Asia Youth Forum be held in Kula Lumpur, Malaysia

The Asian Youth Council will organize One Asia Forum on the 9-10 December 2009 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The theme of the Forum is "Youth and New Media: Emerging Trends and the Future of Asia."

One Asia Forum is a platform for young people to sit around and discuss the internet and the inexhaustible ways in which its uses can be optimized. The aim is to inspire a generation of youth with strong understanding of the rapidly advancing internet and the new media exposure for positive development.

It will also provide a forum for discussion on how the new media can bring young people across Asia to collaborate on new social and economics projects. At the end of the day, it is our hope that One Asia
Forum will spawn new initiatives that will take Asia to a greater height -- if not now, in the near future.

The age limit is under 40 years old and below. ICYO invites the letter of interest from the Indian youth those are interested to attend the event.

        The WAY is celebrating its 60^th Anniversary on the same time and hope the Celebration will be held on 11 and 12 December in Malaysia. ICYO is planning to send the youth to witness this celebration and participate from India.

        The Indian youth may contact ICYO secretariat (at icyoindia@gmail.com) for further detail.
