On behalf of Skål International Penang and the 41st Skål Asia Congress Organising Committee, I'm most honoured and pleased to extend a warm invitation to you to participate to the 41st Skål Asia Congress, to be held in Penang between the 10th and 13th May 2012.
Penang is renowned for its Culture, Food and Heritage. You will be surprised that Muslim mosques, Chinese and Indian temples and Christian churches are literally built next to each other. The closeness of the people from different ethnic group is best reflected by their respect for each other's culture, festival and tradition. You should never miss the delicious hawker foods that are offered around the clock during your stay. Penang offers you great food from prestigious restaurants to hawkers' carts by the road side.
Penang was formally inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 7th July 2008 under three Outstanding Universal Values: tangible and intangible heritage, multicultural exchanges and architectural landscape.
Once again, thanks for the great opportunity you are giving us to host the 2012 Skål Asia Congress.
We certainly look forward to welcome all of you in Penang "The Pearl of the Orient" , next May, and sincerely hope that you will join us and make the Congress another Skål Asia success.
Warmest Regards & ... Skål!
Marco G. Battistotti
President of Skål International Penang
