25th February 2015

Dear all,

This is it! The biggest event of the year is happening next week! (Guess what it is? Malaysia Night of course! Have you seen the AMAZING and RELATABLE trailer?) Another major event better known as The Annual General Meeting (AGM) will also be happening tomorrow! There are so many important events happening in a go you just have to stop and breathe :O Please remember that the venue of the AGM has changed to William Mong Hall at Sidney Sussex College. The 2014/2015 committee will also be issuing out your CUMaS sweaters at the AGM tomorrow so that’s a cool factor to just drop by if you want to wear them as soon as possible 🙂

Yang akan dirindu,

CUMaS Committee 2014/2015 



 1. Annual General Meeting 2015 (Happening Tomorrow!)

Dear members,

Just a reminder that AGM is going to be held tomorrow (26/2) from 6.30pm in William Mong Hall in Sidney Sussex College. Food is expected to arrive latest by 6pm and hence it is advisable for those who wish to eat before AGM to come earlier around 6pm as food is not allowed in the hall.

Also, for those who are going to the CUMaS AGM or those who are not, Check this movie screening out at McCrum seminar room at Benet street, 530-630pm (an hour before CUMaS AGM) .

It’s about the Penan tribe in Sarawak, how they survive on the resources from the rainforest and how their welfare are slowly forgotten

 2. MNight 2015

TRAILER:

“When everyone’s super… no one will be.”
– Syndro, The Incredibles

Behind the façade of a seemingly perfect life as a Cantabrigian, many people here hide a tumultuous internal life known to but a few. Set in present day Cambridge, ‘Effortless?’ seeks to explore the life of a young Malaysian living abroad for the first time in his life and attempts to portray the not uncommon set of challenges, both physical and psychological, faced by students in the land of towering intellectuals and daunting spires.
