DESCRIPTIONS
--------------

ADRIAN CHU for General Representative

"My name is Adrian Chu, and I am currently enrolled in the Bachelor of
Environments.

I went to high school in College du Saint Esprit. I have been
reasonably active in the MSS during the 1st semester. I have had past
experience working with a team of

people, having been an active member of the editing team of the high
school newsletter. I would like to stand as a candidate for general
representative because I believe

that I can bring my share and contribute to the group. I consider
myself to be a responsible person and a hard worker.
If you consider me suitable for this position, I shall dedicate myself
to keeping the Mauritian Society an active, productive entity."

CAROLINE CHUNG TIP for General Representative

"My name is Caroline, 2nd year student enrolled in the Bachelor of
commerce, majoring in Economics and Finance. I would like to stand as
a candidate for the MSS as a

general representative. I believe that I am a quite sociable and
responsible person; my main motive being to proceed with the easy
going of the group and be committed to

the tasks I will be assigned to. It will also be quite a honour for me
to be one of the representatives of my beautiful country."

_______________

TRACY KOO for President, Vice-president

"Many people call me Tracy, also known as Tracy Koo, well simply
because thats my name. This is going to be my final semester at
Melbourne Uni and I wish to end it in a

memorable fashion. I am one of the general representative of the 08/09
committee but you probably wouldnt have seen my face cause I was
abroad. But be assured that Ive

kept up with the events that took place. As many of you know, my
Commerce degree would allow me to dedicate some of my spare time to
the club. I've actually come up with

some ideas already and would be glad to share it with you guys. I am
quite a freak in organising events but I love it and take pride in it.
I admit that I may not be the

most likeable person around, but I'll get this club up and
running.This is my last chance to get involved in the club, and what a
better way of doing it than by being the

organiser myself. So, I'm running for PRESIDENCY! And yes, if I do get
voted, you'll have to call me Miss President! xD"
_______________

DEAN LAU for President, Vice-president, General Representative

"First name: Dean Mikael
Surname: Lau Hing Sung

Well I believe I already possess valuable experience of being a leader
or an executive member thanks to my two years as scout troop leader
back in Mauritius and if ever I

am elected, the obligations that come along will certainly not be new to me."
_______________

CEDRIC LECORDIER for Treasurer

"Name: Cedric Lecordier
College du Saint-Esprit 2007
Currently enrolled in a bachelor of commerce
I would like to stand as candidate for the position of treasurer. This
is mainly because I think the job description suits my degree( and
because I used to be good at

Monopoly)
I think of myself as a reliable person gifted with good interpersonal
skills. I used to be part of the editorial team at Cse back in the
days- I enjoy teamwork.
I do not talk much and find pleasure in listening to people( if that helps).
As you would have noticed, I do not particularly fancy writing about myself.
Finally , English is not my first language and I prefer French and
Creole(this is irrelevant info, I guess).
I would be glad to serve my fellow Mauritians to the best of my ability.
Cheerio"

MELANIE LEUNG for General Representative

Current Vice-President
_______________

KEVIN MUNGUR for Secretary

"Name: Kevin Mungur
Course: Bachelor of Environments (Civil Systems)
UMSU Member: Yes

I would like to stand as a candidate for the position of Secretary in
the Mauritian Student Society. I have, since the launching of this
group been an active member,

first as a general representative, and later as secretary. I believe
my experience will help in the preparation of future events, and
maintain a healthy relation with the

UMSU. I can say with pride that we have done a great job in the
preceding year, and I consider it a pleasure to dedicate some of my
time to the MSS."

That is all for now folks... We will be keeping you updated.

MSS
