Southeast Asia consists of two geographic regions: the Asian mainland and island arcs and archipelagoes to the east and southeast. The mainland section consists of Burma, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam and Peninsular Malaysia while the maritime section consists of Brunei, East Malaysia, East Timor, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Singapore.[1] Papua New Guinea is an observer in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, as is East Timor.

Rotary in Singapore, July 24

This morning, the other Scholars and myself were guests to the District 3310 Rotaract Conference held at another campus, Singapore Polytechnic. Current District Governor Dr. Abraham was the keynote speaker. All university campuses were represented there as Rotaract Teams.

Interestingly, I learned:

"District 3310 comprises of Brunei, Singapore and parts of Malaysia (Johor, Melaka, Sarawak, Labuan FT and Sabah).

As of Jan. 2010 they have a total of 65 Rotary Clubs in the District: 2 clubs in Brunei, 23 clubs in Singapore, 4 clubs in Malacca, 1 club in Labuan FT, 8 clubs in Sarawak, 11 clubs in Sabah and 16 clubs in Johor.

The oldest club in our District is the Rotary Club of Singapore (chartered on 11th August 1930) closely followed by the Rotary Club of Malacca (chartered on 1st September 1930)."
