Plenty of prizes to be given away - a Nintendo Wii, and Ipod, Hoyts tickets and much much MUCH more.

And you'll even be treated with a special performance starring your very own committee of 2007/2008! And we'll have a special guest - Scene at the Movies, who's song has sky rocketed to the top of the Malaysian English Top 10 chart.

12pm - 5pm
Federation Square
FREE ADMISSION

See you there!

Tickets are selling out fast!
MoMU would be at Union House EVERYDAY till 29th Aug (Friday) from 12 - 2pm.
Merdeka Dinner tickets are also on sale!

Putting it roughly, out with the old and in with the new. But the 2007/2008 committee has done a lot for the club over the past year, and sadly it is time for the cabinet to be reshuffled, and for the new brooms to come out of the cupboard.

You have the power to elect the people you want to lead the club - leading the Malaysians of Melbourne University into the next year of university.

When: Friday, 22nd August 2008

Where: Joe Napolitano B, Union House Level 2

Time: 2pm (please be early, or punctual)

For those who are interested to run for a position(s), please email the club before Wednesday, 20th August. Send in your name and the position you are vying for. You can nominate yourself, however you will need someone to second your nomination - they must also be a MoMU member, and attend the AGM.

Please note that to run, you HAVE to attend the AGM (no proxy voting!), and only MoMU members will have the power to vote. So, for a democratic and empowering club to be formed, please attend the AGM next Friday.

If you have as much work as me, or am as stressed as I am, I encourage you all to join me in releasing all that pent up frustration during a relaxing evening - laugh, chat, and game your worries away!

A heads up for those of you who don't know where Princes Park is! Our very own MoMU "BBQ Shepherd" will be rounding up any lost sheep at the North Court at 11am sharp! If you can't see them, contact

Hey guys, how has the first week of Uni been for you? If you've been having headaches with timetables, tutorial times or your heads are spinning after trying to absorb new information, there is the BIG BBQ coming up!


When? Saturday, 9th August
Where? Princes Park, Parkville (at the northern tip of Uni)
Time? 11am - 3pm

The Big BBQ is being held by MASCA and other Malaysian societies across Melbourne, not only for the purpose of providing a chance for you to mingle, but to congratulate the NCG participants and welcome the newcomers!

The food itself is FREE, but it's on a gold coin donation basis - if you're feeling kind hearted, drop us $1 or $2 dollars or MORE if you like :) Malaysians who are new to Melbourne eat for free!

We do need volunteers for the day to help out, so please email the club at momumomu@gmail.com if you feel like lending a helping hand.

You can also keep yourself updated with the Facebook page here

And remember...DON'T BE LATE!

See ya then!
