The DC organisers havent done a good job of providing useful
information or services to other chapters.
When scholarships are announced close to the event, e.g. like WM 2012,
the flights are very expensive. Donor money is wasted. When do you
expect registration will open?
Also if WMAU chapter is providing scholarships, it would be good to
know how much discount Cathy Pacific provide, so we can check the
discounted price means they are the cheapest carrier, e.g. compared
with Qantas. If we can get cheaper rates, it means we can send more
people.
