The eLabtronics team are in Malaysia from 13th to 22nd May 2008. Adilet, one of the Kyrgyzstani programmer, are joining them there.
They've just completed a workshop on using microchips at Petrosains, KLCC. They've gained lots of interest since the past few days there, espacially with Adilet around.
Adilet spoke about his amazing experience and touched many people. He is drawing high level of interests to the CoreChart poverty relief model.
The team will be meeting a few more key people there, before going off to the World Congress on IT (WCIT). If you happen to be there, stop by and say hi!
A very big THANK YOU to everyone that has made this trip possible. Espacially to Dr YKK for hosting the whole team!
Let us hope for their best to make poverty history!

Hi there.
My name is Arif.
I have a confession to make.
I am affected by a disease called Teenage Affluenza.
YOU might be affected too.
Watch this video and diagnose yourself.
3 billion people in the whole world lives under the poverty line. That is almost half of the world population. The only cure to Teenage Affluenza is to help these less fortunate people.
This is your CHANCE.

What we do
We are raising funds to get a team of villagers from Kyrgyzstan to attend the World Congress on Information Technology (WCIT) on 18-22 May 2008 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The aim of this effort is to present a sustainable and scalable poverty eradication model to the whole world.
Why we do it
We believe that these villagers have the perfect solution to eradicate poverty by harnessing the power of technology. They not only help themselves break from the cycle of poverty, but at the same time making local businesses more profitable. Registered under the name TalasTronics (NGO), their method is truly unique – programming microchips.
How YOU can be part of it
We need your help to raise funds to pay for flight, accommodation and WCIT2008 registration fee for three TalasTronics villagers to present their Poverty Relief projects in Malaysia. The total sum anticipated is $10,000.
This is your chance to join our journey in this world-transforming effort.
If you feel that this effort is genuine and are willing to contribute, please donate.
Your $10 (or any amount you could give) could actually change the life of half of the world population. We appreciate any amount that you could offer.
You can either donate to me in cash (if you are in Adelaide), or just click the ‘ChipIn!’ button below or on the top left side panel. It will bring you to a PayPal page, where you can choose to use PayPal, major credit cards or even some bank accounts.
We all hope that the Kyrgyzstan Villagers will prove once and for all there is hope and help for the 3 billion under privileged people!
Thank you for donating and please tell your friends too. Remember, you are helping half of the world population!
