No offence, but a student will still find it rather tight-budgeted to
pay RM299, and get RM20 worth of free CDs.
Uni's come with fast lines, and CD-burners. If they were OSS-inclined,
they'd find out how to (ab)use it :)
If anything, here's a suggestion: get the uni/college to sponsor several students to go. Well, interested ones at least.
students can also team up to buy the CDs together. imagine that? :)
they can. but some malaysian students will sit and wait for Uni to invite them. sorry to say that, but that was what i observed last time.Here, the uni sponsored 6 students to go for a security conference in Sydney (we only payed for our flight tickets). I'm sure they'd do the same in Malaysia if asked nicely.
