Background

On October 10, 2019, the first alumni meeting in Malaysia was held at Park Royal Kuala Lumpur. At the time, eleven alumni came forth to volunteer as coordinators for Malaysia Alumni of Sakura Science Association (MASSA). Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the second meeting was conducted online in February, 2022. The third meeting was held onsite in Shah Alam in July 2023. The fourth event took place at Eastin Hotel (KL) in November, 2024, and the fifth meeting was held at Impiana KLCC Hotel in November 2025. The panel discussion on AI was very well received by the audience.
