Dear All,
You are all invited to come to the Congress of Diaspora.
CID invites all Indonesian Diaspora in the US as well as outside the US. Inspired by the spirit of Sumpah Pemuda 1928, the participants are expected to join CID, independently and voluntarily. With that spirit, the CID will foster unity and togetherness.
Congress of Indonesian Diaspora (CID) will be held on July 6th to 8th 2012 in Los Angeles Convention Center, Los Angeles, California. It will mark as a historic and very important event as it will be the first Congress of Indonesian Diaspora in the World. The event is hoped to reflect a new paradigm for millions of Indonesian diaspora across the globe.
The event will feature inspirational speakers and interactive discussions on variety of topics. Some of the speakers that we are planning to invite will include Indonesian Minister of Tourism and Creative Economic Dr. Mari Elka Pangestu, Minister of National Education Muhammad Nuh, WorldBank Managing Director Dr. Sri Mulyani Indrawati, Dr. Sehat Sutardja (President of Marvell Technology Group), Om Prakash Lohia (CEO and Managing Director of Indorama Group), Chaerul Tanjung (CEO of the Group) and other figures related to the topics of discussion.
As side events, there will be a food bazaar/culinary, exhibition and job fair. The CID program will also include cultural performances, art and music. These performances will be held at the opening, the Unity and Diversity concert in the second day, and at the closing session. We are also planning to invite some of Indonesian artists such as Anggun, Denada, and Afghan and also Indonesian talents who reside in the United States.
The attachments above are the formal letter sent by the Minister of Republic of Indonesia in the United States, and also the registration form. If you are interested, please send back this form to [email protected] before April 30, 2012.
Best Regards,
Permias Pasadena
