The Guangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee (GAGOC) will recruit as many as 60,000 volunteers during an upcoming Asian Games 2010, an official said. Prior to the Games, the GAGOC will also recruit about 1,000 volunteers, who will be arranged to give assistance in different departments within the organizing committee, said Xu Ruisheng, vice mayor of Guangzhou.
In terms of volunteering work, Beijing has shown us a good example to integrate social assistance for the Beijing Olympic Games. And now, we are calling on the public to actively take part in the volunteer services for the upcoming Asian Games in 2010," Xu said at the launching ceremony of the volunteer recruitment.

Message from the CEO of Sunshine Youth Malaysia.
罗秋俊先生献词
全国阳光青年总执行长兼
马来西亚赴北京奥运志工筛选委员会主席
身为全国阳光青年总执行长兼马来西亚赴北京2008奥运志工筛选委员会主席，我非常高兴看到我国奥运志工们在刚过去中国奥运会上的积极付出与卓越表现。马来西亚中国领事馆以及北京奥运筹委会也同时表扬大马10位志工。
我们大马人对于他们的优越表现感到自豪，这一批年介于24至39岁的6女4男青年志工都是来自不同的领域专才，并从240位报名者当中经过数次考验后脱颖而出。各个都在不同领域上表现出色，又富有一种奉献的伟大情操，在自费的前提下，愿意停下满整个月的工作无条件般的成为自愿工作者，令人赞赏。
而且大马是全世界谨932名海外志工当中参与志工名额最高的国家，而且他们的赛会任务都是属于专业技术方面的，除了代表大马义务志工，他们也携带了许多由大马旅游部提供的资讯和纪念品赴京，将大马的美名传播到神洲和全世界。
他们的志工经验对大马来说非常有价值的，因为有朝一日大马举办国际性赛会时，他们的宝贵经验一定能为母国作出贡献。最后我荣幸见证他们的付出，希望他们继续努力，而我们将会在未来的各国体坛盛会派出更多的优秀志工参与。Message from the CEO of Sunshine Youth Malaysia, Mr Loh Chew June.
"As CEO of Sunshine Youth Malaysia cum Malaysian Olympic Volunteer selection committee chairman. I am glad to see our volunteers and their outstanding performance during beijing olympic 2008. Our 10 MOVS received high remarks from the Chinese Embassy in Malaysia and also from the Beijing Olympic Council as well."
"As malaysian, we are proud of our volunteers performance. They are not only volunteers but also inevitably carry the invisible duty as Tourism Malaysia ambassidor in Beijing, by helping to distribute Visit Malaysia flyers to various participants throughout the Olympic Games."
"MOVS, I am really proud of you. Keep it up and we are planning to send more volunteers to others major sports events in the near future.
马来西亚能！大马志工能！

brief list of international sports events
hi all, movs and strangers included,
its fei wen here.
i dont know if u get the same response so far,
after your return from beijing,
many people are keen to learn about ur experience,
look at your photos and admire ur courage,
appreciate your work, and wish to know how they
can also experience a once in a lifetime experience?
i think its really meaningful, to be able to share,
hehe, dont scold me BUT like i always say, haha!!
"little things that we do has such big positive effect
to even people we dont know! :)"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
i was just writing a msg to a friend,
and i realize how much i wanted her to realize
and participate this volunteer experience as well,
Personally,
i think sports are the easiest to accommodate,
cos it brings and unite people together,
objective is important and personal interest,
you can choose to volunteer in charity organization
such as mercy malaysia or world vision program,
but because i know i cant handle the idea
that people is suffering in front of me,
and i cant help them, i'd be devastated,
and also because im not confident with charity org,
i even use to consider to voluneer in U.N.
but because i dont have a specific skill
that seem to fit the picture (& no confidence)
i've long let the idea pass, and i realize the hyper me
are more suitable for outdoor and people oriented
events such as SPORTS!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOW,these are the sports events i would be looking at,
if i was not chosen as volunteer for the Beijing Olympics.
These are linked to the official or volunteers site,
please mouse over the words if you wish,
please note that with smaller sports events
you might NOT SEE a volunteers site.
that doesn't mean you have no way at all!
it means you have to put in extra effort!
to find the contact yourself :) BUT BE WISE!

MSG to KHAITZONG
Hi Khaitzong,
this is feiwen here, saw your msg from themovs.blogspot chat box.
just thought i'd write u a brief email. not that i can help you,
but here's what u can do to keep yourself updated regarding the London Olympics 2012. :) :) :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
whatever volunteer or plans you wish to embark on, first, KNOW YOUR OBJECTIVE.
ask yourself, what is your objective? before you consider anything further, with a clear objective, you will see a clearer direction for yourself, do you know your objective?
Another important tips, every volunteer experience is unique. :)
Even between the 10 of us, we have 101 and different story to share!
So be it volunteering in sports, charity, kids, homeless, animal, etc....
You may realize you're good at something that you've never realize before!
After thinking abt your objective, you can maybe start with babysteps,
like below, thats what i would do, if i were to plan for London Olympics 2010,
its NOT a full proof plan, its only a guide though im sure you can do better. :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. keep checking the London Olympics 2012 official website, at the moment, the recruitment has not started yet.
2. if u have yahoo email or gmail, you can subscribe to their News Alert Services,(not sure if hotmail provides it, its a lousy email tool anyway!) news alerts are very helpful. just put in the keywords 'london olympics volunteer' it will generate international and local news related to the keywords
3. Do visit out blog once in a while, we may not have any updates now as these are all still under planning, it will take some time, do be patient, but we shall update our blog if we do come across any related news.
4. In the meantime, there are many other volunteers event locally, you could get yourself involved with local organization or take up a skill, if you're interested to experience different kinds of experience, and not just go straight to the olympics, you can try out this few sports events, but first,here's a tip, do not discriminate any volunteer role, because if you do, you wont be able to appreaciate it. :)
5. Sukma Malaysia is a good place to start, though they will usually recruit their local state volunteers because no accomodation will be provided, i think you're 22 years old right? So, I would highly recommend the coming Sea Games 2009, in Laos. that im sure will be very challenging. If not, the coming World Games 2009 in KaoHsiung, Taiwan, is great too! Of course the Asian Games 2010 in Guangzhou, which is one of our main plans actually. Another international world event that you can also consider is the World Cup 2010 in South Africa (im considering this option at the moment! even tho i dont understand football, but hey, thats challenging) and then the London Olympics 2012, do you see my point? yes, you definitely have a long way to go, but that doesnt mean you cannot try other events first for experience wise. :) and like i say, one thing always leads to another.... as long as you keep doing something, its an effort and you will have result... :)
keep in touch!
