The Convention delivered the opportunity for approximately 1,000 members from across the globe to come together, to meet friends, new and old, to experience fun\/friendship and exchange good practice and ideas. The importance of working as a global team and the emphasis on grassroots level involvement were cascaded to the delegates present.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\">The programme brought passionate speakers like <strong><em>Christina Lamb<\/em><\/strong> (Author &amp; chief foreign correspondent of the Sunday Times) and panelists, <strong><em>Mariet Verhoef-Cohen<\/em><\/strong> SI International President, of new ideas and solutions, and inspired perspectives on the future for women and girls. Informing and celebrating the work of Soroptimist International. I was truly honoured to be part of something extraordinary and memorable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\">It was very special for me personally, as Kuala Lumpur is my place of birth. I have connected with several old colleagues &amp; friends, Mrs Beh Suat Pheng who will be the next SI Bangsar President and also made a few new ones <strong><em>Dato Anusha<\/em><\/strong> the President of SI South West Pacific (SISWP) and <strong><em>Puan Sri Siew Yong<\/em><\/strong> SI Convention Chair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\">There were a few highlights for me \u2013 meeting up with <strong>Mary Muia, President of SI Future Africa Federation (SIFAF)<\/strong>, sharing the same hotel with other Soroptimists having breakfast in the club lounge. I was delighted to meet up with <strong>Jane Walker from PCF<\/strong> at the community stalls\/projects fair in between sessions. The Location of our hotel was central \u2013 within five minutes walking distance on the skywalk to the KL Conference Centre (KLCC) in the vicinity of the iconic Petronas Twin Tower.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\">The staging of the 21<sup>st<\/sup> SI Convention in Malaysia is historic, the first time in Asia. The Malaysians, as host, embraced with passion and commitment, and every effort was made to ensure it was unique, memorable and hospitable\u00a0 \u2013 offering a variety of cuisine and cultural diversity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><strong>Topics such as: \u2013 Gender Equality for Water &amp; Food Security, Women Leading in Technology &amp; Innovation, Our Climate, Our responsibility and Our actions were delivered by keynote &amp; plenary speakers.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\">I visited many places of interest beforehand as a tourist with Kath and a few other American Soroptimists. I have enhanced my knowledge of the historical and democratic process of Malaysia through visiting museums in Kuala Lumpur and Malacca. We booked two trips ourselves \u2013 one day to Malacca which has certainly grown since I left Malaysia 30+ years ago; we also visited the Batu Caves (limestone caves with temples dedicated to deities worshipped by the Hindus) they also had monkeys living in the caves, rather like the Rock of Gibraltar, we also visited the Royal Palace and Putrajaya \u2013 the site of the relocated government buildings.\u00a0 On both of these trips we had a driver and minibus to ourselves and both drivers were excellent tour guides. We also attended a boat trip to Sky Mirror, organised by Soroptimists, this was about two hours away from the city on the coast, we visited a Chinese temple, a seafood restaurant and a rice factory and we met some lovely Soroptimists from the UK and the U.S.A. and have connected with them throughout the convention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><strong>Interactive Workshops<\/strong> on the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> day were very interesting \u2013 we selected two to focus on which were \u2013 <strong>The \u2018She\u2019 Factor on climate change &amp; Human Trafficking Prevention.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><strong>1<sup>st<\/sup> day<\/strong>

and went straight to our hotel, The Impiana, which was close to the convention centre and one of the recommended hotels when booking our place.\u00a0 I was glad we had a few days to settle in after the 13 hour flight and for me to become acclimatised to the heat and humidity of Kuala Lumpur.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\">Prior to the convention we met many delegates either at breakfast or in the evening happy hour, this included the President of SIGBI and delegates from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Ivory Coast, United Kingdom, the United States of America and New Zealand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><strong>Soroptimist Federations and

and boundary reviews to ensure equal representation for all people living in the District Council\u2019s area at a local, county and national level, I found the groupings within the Federations strange.\u00a0 For example the African continent is shared between two federations and the Asian continent between three.\u00a0 Clearly this will change with the establishment of the new African federation, \u00a0perhaps the time is right to review them all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><strong>The
