PROPOSED NEW MALAYSIAN STUDENTS OF NNSMA WEBSITE

The Electronic Media and Information Technology Team (eMITT) in collaboration with the MSA would like to announce our proposal to all Malaysian students in Nizhniy Novgorod about our plan to develop the new official Malaysian Students' of NNSMA website. The new official website will be aimed at establishing an identity for our academy and Malaysian student's community in Nizhniy Novgorod. The website will serve as the students' web portal containing latest news and important notices from Dean's office, classes and exam schedules, hospital listing and directions, insurance coverage, and many more!

The new website will feature our very own domain and loads of new proposed features such as new students' orientation portal, online journals and research page and an alumni portal!

New features will include frequently updated photo & video album, news reports, FAQ on travel arrangements and visa requirements and applications, social networking (which works like Facebook!), library information and many many more!

The new website will host subdomains for all Malaysian clubs and societies such as PPIM, UMNO, Sumphero, and many more! Existing students and new students will be given their own MSA e-mail address.

eMITT would like to invite all Malaysian students who want to help volunteer in making the new website a success to register at http://emitt.angelfire.com today!

All these proposed plans are now under consideration of eMITT, and if you have any new suggestions and ideas please feel free to comment.

MIGRATION CARDS

STUDENTS who have not collected their Migration Cards (a white piece of paper you fill up at the immigrations when entering the Russian Federation) from the Dean’s Office, are requested to do so.

ALL MIGRATION CARDS ARE NOW READY FOR COLLECTION.

Warning came that, soon the Police will start checking. To be on the safe side, please collect them before Friday the 26th of December 2008.

Pesanan Daripada Kedutaan Besar Malaysia di Moscow kepada semua pelajar dari Malaysia

SEMUA PELAJAR-PELAJAR DARI MALAYSIA,

PESANAN KESELAMATAN

Sebagaimana saudara/saudari telah sedia maklum, pada masa ini (winter) waktu malam menjadi lebih panjang daripada waktu siang. Secara tidak langsung sebahagian daripada pergerakan saudara/saudari untuk pergi/balik ke kuliah dan untuk tujuan-tujuan lain lebih banyak melibatkan waktu malam berbanding sebelumnya. Walaupun keadaan keselamatan pada keseluruhannya adalah baik, Kedutaan Besar Malaysia ingin mengingatkan saudara/saudari supaya sentiasa berhati-hati semasa dalam perjalanan. Di antara perkara-perkara yang perlu diberi perhatian ialah:

• Sentiasa bergerak dalam kumpulan;
• Menghadkan pergerakan pada waktu malam kepada urusan-urusan yang perlu sahaja; dan
• Mengelakkan daripada mengunjungi tempat yang menjadi tumpuan kumpulan-kumpulan tertentu.

KEHILANGAN PASPORT DI LUAR RUSIA

Seperti biasa semasa cuti musim sejuk, ramai di antara saudara/saudari akan mengambil kesempatan ini untuk melancong di negara-negara di sekitar Rusia. Kedutaan Besar Malaysia ingin menasihatkan agar saudara/saudari menjaga pasport masing-masing dengan baik semasa berada di luar negara. Jika berlaku kehilangan pasport, saudara/saudari perlu menghubungi Kedutaan Besar Malaysia di negara berkenaan untuk meminta bantuan. Adalah diingatkan bahawa Sijil Perakuan Cemas yang dikeluarkan oleh Kedutaan Besar Malaysia di negara yang berkenaan kepada saudara/saudari sebagai dokumen perjalanan sementara untuk mengganti pasport tidak boleh digunakan untuk masuk ke Rusia kerana saudara/saudari tidak mempunyai entry visa. Saudara/saudari adalah dinasihatkan menggunakan Sijil Perakuan Cemas tersebut untuk pulang ke Malaysia dengan segera, membuat permohonan pasport dan visa sebelum datang semula ke Rusia.

Sekian dimaklumkan.

Dear Friends,

Under the leadership of Nasuha (3rd Year), the cooking team is planning to dish out an interesting 'Malaysian Menu' for the Malaysian Night. To make this menu successful, we not only need great cooks (you all), but also fine ingredients from Malaysia which cannot be bought here to give the dishes the 'UmmphH!' needed.

The cooking team needs:
--> DRIED CHILLI (CHILI KERING)
--> COCONUT MILK POWDER (SERBUK SANTAN)
--> CINNAMON STICKS (KULIT KAYU MANIS)
--> DARK SOY SACUE (SOS HITAM PEKAT)
--> CARDAMON (BUAH PELAGA)
--> HALAL CHICKEN STOCK (STOK AYAM)
--> BEE HOON (BI HUN)

We request for your kind self to donate these fine ingredients to the cooking team. Let it be a few chilies or a whole packet, your contributions, big or small, will go a long way in making this Malaysian Night a success.

Should you intend to donate, please leave your details (in comments) so that our representatives can come to collect them OR contact Shakti Yeoh @ +79202925026.
