3rd International Peace Jamboree 2008 Melaka

Sabah was represented by 18 Scouts and Scout Leaders, all from the district of Inanam to the 3rd International Peace Jamboree held from 18 - 24 August 2008 at Bukit Katil, Melaka, Malaysia. Ms. Hudayana Sapri, the ADC for Inanam (Women's Affair) headed the Contingent. About 1000 Scouts attended the Jamboree which included countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kuwait and Indonesia. Overall our boys and girls enjoyed the Jamboree.

Korea - Loving it!

The 12th Korean International Jamboree 2008 at Mt. Sorak was simply superb!! For 8 days (5th - 12th August 2008) it was like a dream for the 17 of us who attended the Jamboree. 12,000 participants from over 20 countries, comparable to a regional Jamboree. What was even more special to us was that we, from the State of Sabah, represented Malaysia as there were no one else from the rest of Malaysia that attended the Jamboree. And even more for me as I was appointed as the Contingent Leader. Would like to take this opportunity to thank the Sabah Scouts Council and the South Gyeunggi Scout Council for the sponsorship and support. Missing Korea already.
