Bhanu Chopra will be visiting KL tentatively on 23 April 2017, anyone else keen for a meet up?

The date is still far, but just want to gauge if there's any interest. We are due for an annual gathering as well.

He joked that he will drag Jorg Schauer (Stowa) owner to come along, but i am pretty sure that wont happen

Hey guys. Bhanu will be available on 23 April noon. He will bring along some goodies courtesy from Stowa. He is asking whether we are up for a GTG.

He is staying at Traders hotel. So my thought is we can make it nearby.

MWF gathering? Yay?

I need help. I don't have experience organise these stuff.

Help or comment pls

Bhanu only free at noon. And we probably better stick to places near his hotel.

I have only been to 1 MWF GTG but I see Watch GTG usually done in confined room

you may post at "MISC - GTGs, Meetups and Events" to gauge the response/attendee. i think is time to meet up with fellow members since we don't have any GTG last year. Lets combine this GTG as MWF's GTG.

  • Success. It's a mind game.
I would be interested to attend too, barring any clash of schedules. It would be an honour to meet the big man, and catch up with you guys.

I have line up a hotel restaurant with private room (traders hotel, Bhanu stay there). The room is for 8-10 person, but if stand a bit should be able to accommodate 10-12. It's a buffet lunch. Rm89 nett per pax. Public bank credit card 20% discount.

I kind of confirm. Wanna ask mod and previous gtg organiser. We collect money first right?

Also anyone with public bank credit card?

No specific what type of credit card. But I will reconfirm again.

You will be a very important person. (A backup who have public bank credit card would be welcome) Will need u to pay and I pay u back the cash to enjoy the discount.

Off course I need to collect the money first. 90×80%=72. Everyone should pay rm80, the extra rm8 is to cover for our guest. Bhamu will be bringing some goodies over (not sure what and quantity)

Anyone have issue with the arrangement can comment here or pm me directly.

TLDR

Date: 23 April 2017
Time: TBD Noon
Venue: Traders hotel, KL, Restaurant details will announce once confirm.
Dress code: Smart casual
Food: Buffet lunch or high tea, halal

Things to do:

1) Confirm with guest and restaurant on lunch and high tea time frame.

2) Conform with timeless and public credit card holder on their availability and possible to pay with their card

3) To provide banking details for payment
