Dear Members and Friends,
We take this opportunity of wishing you all a happy, healthy and prosperous 2010 and look forward to seeing you again at the many exciting events the committee is planning to organise for you and your family during the new year.
As members, you have all contributed to the success of the association, helping MABL achieve the goals it set out at the start of last year. Your support has been invaluable at the many events organised last year, contributing to the ongoing success of MABL. For this we offer our thanks as we know that without our members there would be no Association.
Currently, our membership stands at 95 people. This year, with your help, we hope to increase our membership by inviting you to ask your friends, colleagues, relatives and others to join MABL, take part in cultural and other activities, meet other Malaysians and enjoy a little part of Malaysia in Belgium.

In a few days’ time, we will be opening the registration for the Chinese New Year Luncheon (28 February) on a first-come-first-serve basis for a limited number of 130 places. Members will be given priority before the registration is opened to non-members. Watch out for the Chinese New Year Flyer – and get in quickly!
MABL appreciates your support and we look forward to meeting you again and to your active participation in our Malaysian Association. Please note that changes to the composition of the MABL Committee have had to be made due to unforeseen circumstances.
