Kuching City Rover Scout Council

Dear fella rovers,

A portal has been established to collect all the pictures of the badges produced within Malaysia. The membership is only opened to fella Malaysian only.  

The address of the portal is;

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/malaysia_scout_badges/

The main objective for the group is to consolidate as many scout badges from Malaysia as possible. The distribution of scout badges issued by other State are so wide and difficult to collect. With this portal, it aims to bring every individual collectors or scouts from other state to show and share the badges they have from their area.

When you first join the group, you should list down the followings;

Your full name,
Your date of birth,
Your unit/troop
Your district/ State
and your full address

Once your application is approved, please head directly to photo portal and upload your picture in scout uniform into folder Who’s who. We certainly do not want any Mr. Who banging around in the portal.

Only Malaysia Scout badges will be allowed within this portal

The following badges are not welcomed.
1. Proficiency Badges
2. Rank Badges
3. District Strip
4. Position Badge

If the above item is found, it will be removed from the message as well as photo. 

When you insert a photo or a picture in the photo portal, make sure that the image is clear. All unclear image will be deleted off.

Happy collecting.

regards

Dear brothers and sisters rovers,

The annual World Jamboree On The Air (JOTA) / Jamboree On The Internet (JOTI) for this year falls on 21/10/2006 and 22/10/2006. Starting from 12:00a.m. Saturday morning all the way till 11:59p.m. Sunday night. We regret to inform that as we only received confirmation from the local amarture radio club late last week, we would have to postpone our JOTA until next year. However, you can still get a feel of the JOTI by chatting on line by following the address below.

Basically there are two methods of doing so;

1, Chat directly in web chat (please click web chat when you are there).

2, Configure your MIRC and hook up with the scout.link server and chat from there. (follow the illustrations in joti web site).
