22.01.2022 SISWP 2020 Virtual AGM & General Meeting is online today. SIMNI has three members in attendance President Audrey Martin Secretary Marney Perna and Treasurer Chris Knight (delegate). Due to Covid-19 our SISWP CoC has been deferred until Nov 2020 in Indonesia. We have SISWP club delegates from each of our countries. Not easy when everyone does not have the same access to technology. Thankfully for our SISWP President Anusha Santhirasthipam who has been in lock down in Canada the time lines have worked well - it is Sat evening in Canada and early morning in Australia here. Technology is certainly challenging us but also giving us many more opportunities to stay connected. Namaste Chris Knight SIMNI
