Sharing of Ideas

Last Monday I had the opportunity to meet up with the Director of Urban Design (NUS) Zhang Ye, Jason, Yihan and Zhuoshu, the Alumni working committee. I love their idea of an ebook to commemorate the launch of the MAUD Alumni Club. I readily took up the lead, when asked, to produce the eBook. Learning, sharing ideas, and promoting a better world, whether Urban, suburban, or rural is welcome and wonderful. This coincides with my interest in expanding knowledge, hence this site would be the start to gathering ideas and bringing like-minded people.

There are a few things that came to my mind that we can immediately set up.

  1. Setting up a working committee structure and recruiting members
  2. Setting up communication and adopting a flexible communication platform
  3. Sourcing for materials
