INTRODUCTION
Dear Belgians, members, friends and anyone interested in the BCT-activities,
The second issue of Kramiek got a bit delayed vis-à-vis the initial schedule! Sorry about
this! The reason for this delay is that, behind the scenes, many of us were quite busy
tackling the BCT events and issues, in order to provide you with an even better service!
We have indeed been quite active in trying out places where to organise Get2gethers
in a different “ambiance”, as well as dinners, checking out charity projects, and more
particularly the Baan Kru Noi issue, organising events and activities and planning new
ones, preparing (designing) a thorough revamping of our website, etc..
You will find the results of this flurry of activities in this very issue of Kramiek. And of course,
in our upcoming events!
And so here it is: a new Kramiek, brimming over with information, stories, accounts and
invitations to new activities!
You will find a review on what has been done during the first half of the BCT year, but we
are also looking ahead and we are now calling for new candidates to join the BCT committee
next year.
You will read about past events, but also get informed about future activities. “Discovery”
tells the story about the north of Thailand and the Kwo Min Tang. This time “Very Thai”
focuses on Thai symbols. There is also the story of Herman van Coile in “Belgians in
Thailand”, an account of the logo contest, a paragraph on “Where to find...(beers this
time)”, information on the website revamping, announcements by other organisations,
etc.
There is actually too much to mention here, so we just invite you to sit back and relax,
open this new issue of Kramiek and have a lot of fun and awe, reading it!!
And of course we are looking forward seeing even more of you at our next events!
With warm regards,
The BCT Committee
