Not open for further replies.
because the Opening Dinner is on a SUNDAY evening, I am asking the organizers if they can organize a friday-sunday weekend side event BEFORE CB9 begins FOR those who did not make the list
 

a few slots have opened up since the invites were sent out to shortlisted folks

rather than go back to a list that is about 2 months old , those who are seriously keen to join CB9 please send me so that i can go through the freshness of interest

selection will still be based on your history at CS
 

those who have accepted the invite to participate in CB9 please do deposit $100 to POSBANK SAVINGS account 021-12076-6 and

PM ME THE TRANSACTION NUMBER

thank you
 

ok thank you for patience everyone..... took a few days to sort out who is what ..... total of 13 out of 15 slots taken up for CB9, 1 pending leave and therefore ONE slot is available

Some write up from PhotoMalaysia (before South Korea who has since confirmed their participation)

"Crossing Bridges is a much anticipated, interesting, annual event for photographers who are members of PhotoMalaysia.com, Clubsnap of Singapore, Fotgrafer.net of Indonesia, Photo.vn of Vietnam, Photographers from the Philipines and Photographers from Sri Lanka. The purpose of the Crossing Bridges Event is to build bridges of friendships and understanding between nearly a million photographers who are members of online Photography forums in this region. The event has been held annually since 2004. It has been hugely successful, and life long, close, cross border friendships have developed among participants of previous Crossing Bridges events. Which is why half the participants are regular attendees, and each event is like a gathering of old friends. You will meet and make new friends from other countries. Some of the very talented photographers from Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia and Sri Lanka will be attending this event.

Program

This year the Crossing Bridges 9 is held in conjunction with our Merdeka Day Celebrations. Our participants will have a taste of local life, architecture and landscapes around the Klang Valley and other parts of Malaysia. This is going to be the first time where we will be holding the first Crossing Bridges Exhibition in the heart of Kuala Lumpur.

We will then move north to Ipoh and Kuala Kangsar. We will be working with The Tourism Development Corporation of Perak to showcase traditional dances, local crafts, the Kuala Kangsar Palace and the Palace Museum.

A visit to the charcoal factory in the morning will be one of the highlights of this trip. Here participants will be given a chance to see first hand how charcoal is made.

Next up will be a visit to Pulau Pangkor, an idyllic island off the west coast of Malaysia. Here participants have a chance to shoot the beautiful sunset, a morning round island photo hunting trip, an island hopping excursion and a chance to shoot some underwater photography.

The group will make it back to Kuala Lumpur in time for our Merdeka Parade and Celebrations..."
