Capilano College’s CANASEAN

program provides a forum for

Canadians and Asians to meet and share
opportunities and experiences.

It forges commercial links and
personal relationships between business
people in Canada and ASEAN
(association of southeast Asian nations,
plus China and Vietnam) in a mutually
beneficial two-way learning process. In
addition to learning about business
opportunities, participants also learn
about each other’s business etiquette,
culture and customs.

For more information about the
program, including corporate
participation, contact Ed Wong at
984-1706. O

Grizzlies on Campus

s many of you know by now, the

Vancouver Grizzlies professional
basketball team will be playing their
first ever rookie free agent camp
intersquad game in the Sportsplex on
Tuesday, July 11 at 7:30 p.m. This will
be a wonderful opportunity to see
those stars who will be performing at
GM Place, without having to pay the
high ticket prices. The cost for
admission to the game is very
reasonable and the proceeds of this
game will go toward supporting our
women’s and men’s basketball
program.

General admission $10
Season ticket holders $8
General admission tickets will be
available for sale at the Sportsplex front
desk beginning June 27. We estimate
that tickets will be sold out within the
first week of sales. I will reserve 150
tickets from June 27 to June 30 for the
College community. After this, these
tickets will be available to the general
public.
