'MINGALAR BAR', meaning Welcome in Myanmar language.

As u can see from the pictures, JCUS encourages students to come out with such events and these only help one community to understand and know the other.

The Myanmar students under Ms. Su Mar Tun (presenter in picture 3), had arranged for the cultural evening, (held on 2nd September'05), from the assistance of the International Students Affairs office.

Through the two way presentation by these students, all participants for the evening, including the campus director's had the opportunity to know the culture, values, traditions, life style, places of interest, religion and above all understand the country from a different perspective.

After the presentation, the presenters had asked like a quiz to the participants about Myanmar. The winners were given a small token of appreciation. One of the highlights was a Swedish student Ms. Anna, taking up the challenge to try and dance the traditional dance, as it was being played on the screen.
