Dear Mardetanha and all,
Ks aka 98, one of the core organizers of this event, regretfully stated
that there will be no offer of scholarship; time restriction did not allow
them to prepare that.
But cheer up guys, WMF is expanding its grants
rt>.
We will find events in Japan with scholarships in the not too distant
future!
Best,
Tomo

Sorry, I just post in Japanese. Tomo will help
Translation.//Thank you,
Tomo!!!
奨学金は出ない。
もともとイベント自体が急に決まったのと、計画している頃は、asian wikimedian meetupのことは知らなかったので許してください。
日本語は言語として孤立しているので、どうしてもドメスティックなものになりがちだ。アウトリーチ活動に積極的な人材も、ごく限られている。発表者との交渉は慣れているんだけど、通訳や翻訳の手配となると、費用の面でも労力の面でも難しいところがある。

Hey
The website is fully Japanese, so I could make no heads or tails, Do they
offer scholarship for off-japasnee-but-asian wikimedians ?
