Several weeks ago I was informed of the good news that Malaysia will finally to host the Twelfth Senior Technical Managers' meeting of EANET. The meeting was held on 21-22 September 2011. The venue was a posh new hotel in Kuala Lumpur - the Royal Chulan. To my delight I received an invitation to attend the reception dinner. What a lovely opportunity to meet up with old friends and ex-colleagues!
As usual, the EANET Secretariat and Network Centre came well prepared to brief the participants on the progress of EANET and latest developments. The representatives from each member country were also eager to share their monitoring achievements.

This is unique! We were served a choice of white or brown sugar sticks with our after-dinner coffee. If you prefer your coffee sweeter, you just stir longer.
I'm with Aida from the Secretariat and Sinia from MMD. Aida and I first met when we attended the discussions leading to the establishment of EANET and now we have lost count on how many meetings we have attended together in various capacities!
Everyone was happy and relaxed at the end of the meeting. We ladies love to take pictures so we can treasure the memories. I believe the men like to be included too.
Young and old, we've all become part of the EANET family.
