Announcement

Every beginning will have its ending. Same goes to this ICT Week. Today is the second day or better known as last day of our participation in this year’s ICT Week!

You can catch up on our first day experience here.

Today was a great experience for all of us particularly when we had divided ourselves to different shifts. 4 in a team for morning and afternoon session respectively.

It was a busy morning for us (the exhibitor) when most of the conference and seminar participants were paying visits to our booth! Their positive response towards our products and services brightened up our day. This exhibition was indeed a good opportunity for us to expose more of ourselves to the public and let the public know more on what actually web hosting is.

When we approached them to offer FREE e-Commerce consultation, most of them were eager to learn more on that. Most importantly they provided us with feedbacks that could help us understand more on what aspect that most users needed. We thank every one for their support and response

To wrap up this year’s ICT Week, we shall feature you some of the snapshots of the day!
