Dr Ruwan Hulugalle, ICMA Cambodia Regional Director, has had his responsibilities extended to the Mekong Region (Cambodia, Thailand, Myanmar and Laos). In Thailand he is looking for staff to be in the ICMA office to market CMA programs. He has made good corporate contacts during his time in Thailand, but need someone permanently there to follow up. He also met with Rajamangala University prior to returning Cambodia, where they gave him the signed hard copy of the MOU with ICMA.
In Cambodia, the Regional office is busy preparing for ICMA’s October activities in Phnom Penh (CMA intensive course, a Project Management Certificate of Proficiency course, and a Gala Dinner. A charity element has been added to the Gala Dinner as the Regional Office is looking to raise funds for a rural school in Cambodia through the dinner, which will be a much needed CSR activity for ICMA in Cambodia.
Dr Ruwan is hoping he can get some regional participation at the Gala dinner. He hopes to will grow the regional concept further as the Mekong region programs get further underway which will be an added benefit to ICMA Australia membership (i.e. Regional networking). The invitation is shown above.
