Hallo meine Lieben!
Having a great response from our members, both nominees (9 in total, please see below for their pretty photos!) as well as voters, the German Language Society Elections for academic year 09/10 were held yesterday evening, 31. August 2009, with much success.
Here's a short recap, for all those who missed out on the evenings suspense-filled entertainment and fun!
Naturally, the nominees put up a tough fight against one another, pitting their skills and flaunting their charisma, to win over the hearts of our voters. It's no question that every single one of them had reason enough (be it 3, 5, or perhaps even 20) to be voted for, if not for the limited number of available positions of course...
Even after 2 hours of stunning soliloquies, interesting Q&As, intense name-scribbling and enthusiastic vote-counting, the results were only certain after a second round of votings for the three-way tying spot of the Project Director. (Yes, even though there were 2 vacancies!)
Nevertheless, we did eventually arrive at a final outcome.
So here's what you've been reading this for! The nominees who were able to captivate voters (in one way or another) in this years elections are as follows:
Vice-President: Wong Wei Ting
Project Director 1: He Yajie
Project Director 2: Tan Xi'en Rachel
Marketing Director: Vasu Gulati
Editor: Anna Chong
Herzlichen Glückwunsch to the newly elected EXCO members!! You fought a hard battle. Please give your best effort for the up-coming year ahead! :)
And of course, a big thank you to all nominees (regardless of whether you won or not!) and voters for participating in this event! It could not have been held without you...
Lastly, we look forward to your continuous support!
Mit lieben Grüssen,
Your Editor.
