Great. Thx a lot for the initiative :-)

I'm thinking of ways to bring some orgs from Malaysia and Philippines. Been 
discussing options with my colleagues. I'll contact some potential funders 
to assist them if our petitions get approved to seek for more participation 
of CS in such events.

Cheers
Jean
