Hi guys and gals at Asian Entrepreneurs and Professionals,

Hope you all are enjoying the summer.

Let's meet up for a Saturday Brunch and then go for a nice walk at Iona Beach, close to the YVR airport.

Be prepared with good shoes, hat and sunscreen. If it rains, I think we can still do a nice walk with an umbrella.

Hope to see some of you soon.

Cheers, Vivian

Looks like everyone is busy with Christmas so I am moving our Sunday Brunch to January for us to celebrate a New Year of setting dreams and goals.

Let's have our Sunday Brunch this coming Sunday December 7 before everyone gets too busy. Come with a Christmas spirit. Meet old and new friends at our Asian Entrepreneurs and Professionals group.

Cucumber Cafe has a great selection of breakfast menu from traditional to inspirational.
Prices range from $5 to $15 per person.

Please RSVP and bring a friend too. We will have a lucky draw with amazing gifts and door prizes for all those who show up at 11am.

Cheers, Vivian :)

Hi everyone at Asian Entrepreneurs and Professional Meetups,

We are going to a brand new place for our Sunday brunch.

Cucumber Cafe is a very cool and modern place for breakfasts. You will definitely love their coffee, tea and breakfast selection. Prices range from $5 to $15 per person.

For this NOV 2008 meetup, I would like to share a few secrets or latest trends on what smart business people are doing to overcome this financial crisis -- we can definitely turn something negative into positive by knowing what to do at the right time.

Please RSVP and join me and other members for a lovely Sunday Brunch together.

Sincerely,
Vivian (Dr. Vi - value & integrity)

PS: I have a last minute meeting on NOV 2 so I have moved this brunch to second Sunday of the month. Thanks for your attention.

Hi Everyone at Asian Entrepreneurs and Professionals Meetup,

Please welcome our new Assistant Organizers David and Frances. They will be helping me out to organize some amazing events for you on a monthly basis.

I have been busy with different global projects and doing some business trips in summer and for the months to come. Therefore, I will do most of the virtual meetup communication with you. When I am in town with no scheduled teleconference calls or meetings, I will definitely be at our meet ups.

To kick start our Fall season (yes, moon festival is just passed... it's Fall now), we will have a MONTHLY SUNDAY BRUNCH on the FIRST week of every month at River Rock Dockside Cafe in Richmond, BC.

Dockside Cafe will be closing on OCT 6 for renovation so we would just squeeze in for our first Sunday brunch there on OCT 5. After that, I believe we can move to the upstairs restaurant or buffet area. We will let you know. They have unlimited FREE parking, next to the casino. Just walk to the hotel lobby and find Dockside Cafe on your right. Bring some business cards and share what you do. We want to know who you are and what you do.

Sunday Brunch is about $20 per person, all inclusive with breakfast buffet and a coffee / tea.

As a busy Asian entrepreneur and / or professional, you would know the power of networking. However, not all networking events are rated equally. Although our group does not have frequent meetup events like others, but we have a tight circle of friends who are committed to make our life and our global communities better with a little contribution every day. We only welcome members who are nice, friendly and courteous with smart and intelligent business conversation. If you are not interested in being nice, I would invite you to leave. So, hopefully, when you come next time, you will meet all the amazing, positive, uplifting professionals -- sharing some of the positive vibe. :)

I will also start a monthly email newsletter with "Asian Business Insights". I welcome anyone to write something and send me an ezine article (<100 words) and contribute to our monthly newsletter too.

Thanks again for your support. I look forward to meeting you all soon.

Sincerely,

Vivian Lee (Dr. Vi - value and integrity)

PS: Please forward all your value-added messages to vivian@globalmcn.com I will review and publish all together online, instead of having individual messages forwarded to all members. We respect confidentiality and privacy. Thank you.
