HOW MUCH: Dinner attendees are asked to pay 150 RMB each, which includes a sit-down dinner & 2 glasses of wine, Saigon beer, lime soda, or soft drinks (RASBJ is partially subsidizing the F+B cost). Your advance payment counts as registration for the EGM as well as dinner. The formal EGM is free; if you wish to attend the EGM but cannot attend the dinner, see the EGM meeting notice below.

HOW TO RSVP: Reserve for dinner via Wechat by adding Peter Hogg at petethestreet and paying in advance with your name clearly stated, no later than Aug. 13, Friday. Seating is limited, and will be allocated strictly in order of receipt of payment; you’ll be waitlisted if the dinner is oversubscribed. For members only; for membership information go to rasbj.org

MORE ABOUT THE EVENT: The RASBJ EGM will take place before the sit-down dinner. At the EGM, members will vote in-person or by proxy on a resolution related to its recent registration, which was emailed to members. Why did RASBJ register officially?  To better serve its surging membership — which has tripled since late 2019 – RASBJ is regularising to be more sustainable, professional and innovative in offering high-quality events for the intellectually curious on a larger scale.
