This has got to be one of the weirdest titled post on this site, I was looking at the PR and I have no idea how to put it better. The invite said “Asus U-Bamboo Media Launch” but on the day itself it was more than just the U-Bamboo launch.

I’ll summarize to the best of my ability of that 4 paged Press Release, here we go!

The Event
The launch was held on 14th July at Fukuya, a Japanese restaurant over in KL.
Here’s the crowd. Anxiously waiting for the event to start, which from what I know was a little delayed. Seeing that it’s KL, it’s understandable.
Of course the waiting guests were not left with empty stomach. Yummy Japanese finger food!
After a long wait, the event finally started. Unfortunately there were no seats, the room was getting stuffy, and I had just finished 2 assignments earlier on and have been lugging my arsenal of photography equipment + notebook.
The event started off with Duncan Kuo giving a short speech, Business Development Manager from Asus Malaysia.
After that, Vanessa Ng, Marketing Manager from Intel Malaysia.
This was followed by a host of others which I don’t recall their name. My apologies to those unnamed individuals in the following photos.
Anyway, we were presented with slides after slides after slides.
This photo was taken approximately 30 minutes after Duncan’s speech. ZOMG!??!? That long? Yes, I wasn’t joking when I said we were presented with slides after slides.
And finally, after a long and tiring session – we come to the end of the event.
Here are some videos.
Hey bro, how do you get to know those kind of events held ? I meant are u getting invitation from them or we can access to whatever website to get to know events in Malaysia ?
Hi there, this is Wai Mun from Intel. I like the video you captured. Do you mind mailing it to me for my own reference? Thanks!
