On behalf of AIESEC USM, I am glad to announce that Exchange Participant Nazlin Abdul Shukor (a.k.a. Ayin -in photo, first from left), former VP ER of LC USM 2005/2006, has arrive safely in Budapest, Hungary, for her MT with Vital Europe. Ayin will be there for a year, and we hope that she will enjoy her internship.
Here's wishing Ayin a blessed Ramadhan, and that she gets well soon.
For the rest of our Muslim readers who are observing the holy month of Ramadhan, happy fasting!

"In Malaysia, more than 37 per cent of the group who are currently infected with HIV are between the ages of 13 and 29," said Gaye Phillips, UNICEF Representative in Malaysia and Special Representative to Singapore and Brunei. "That's a serious population group that we need to look at. Because it shows us that young people are not being well informed."
In partnership with UNICEF, the Football Association of Malaysia and AIESEC are working to make youth more aware of the dangers of HIV -- and what they can do to avoid it.
The programme complements UNICEF's strategic approach to HIV prevention amongst youth through life skills-based education, youth centres in rural areas and harm reduction for injecting drug users.
