Representing Thailand at IPM 2009 in Rome

My first Global Conference with more than 100 different nationality friends around the world

I really have this great opportunity to join the very important gathering of all the AIESECer around the world. The International President Meeting (IPM 2009) where once in the AIESEC life time as an AIESECer, you have to join as your own the country representative. This year it took place in Rome, one of the most beautiful countries with the great history of Italy like ours in AIESEC.

During the 15 days in the conference, we have variety of beneficial session from organization workshop, networking time, competitor analyze, focus area planning, sharing, Asia Pacific working group, etc.

But from the overview, i got to shape my vision, my understanding of AIESEC, strong networking, proactively, diversity of culture and experience that you would never found in other places.

This 14 days alone in strange place as the first time, you might not going to believe this that I was dare to travel alone and achieve this special experience by my own. But as you become an AIESECer and especially the president of the country, you should know how to grown up and stand on your own for the sake of others.
