Announcement: BANGLADESHI-AUSTRALIANS MARINER RENUNION, 12 – 15TH MARCH 2010

We are elated to inform our fellow sea farers that an Australia wide Mariners Reunion has been organised.  An entire resort has been booked in Merimbula (vide www.kianinny.com.au) to facilitate this large scale event.

The Bangladeshi-Australians Mariner community cordially invites you to attend this coveted event.  Australia as a country is internationally renowned as a prime holiday destination.  The secondary beneficial outcome of attending this reunion will allow you to experience this great land; with a rich history of colonialism, modern cosmopolitan hubs and the contrasting outback, rainforests and beaches.  Literally, endless options will be presented when considering Australia as a holiday destination.

The south coast of New South Wales (NSW) is one of the most popular tourist regions in Australia.  Centric to this, is the township of Merimbula – the cornerstone of the Sapphire coast (refer to www.sapphirecoast.com.au).  Merimbula is a 4 hours drive from Sydney, 2 hours from Canberra and 8 hours from Melbourne. 

Merimbula is centrally located amidst the ocean, mountains and a lake; where the Great Dividing Ranges reach out to the sea.  The Merimbula coast is interweaved with both the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean.  The migratory route of the Blue Whales follows this coastline.  Simply, an ideal retreat location – and nothing else comparable on earth – for Seafarers!  A fiscal value cannot be placed when conducting a cost-value assessment to determine the feasibility of such a venture. 

Please utilise this opportunity and partake in the largest reunion, spanning from 1^st to 30^th Batch of ex-Jaldians.  Guaranteed, that there will be members present at this reunion with whom you have extant bonds, may have sailed together, or even crossed paths at sea or ashore.

Cost per couple for a 3 night package is about US$400, which includes food and entertainment.  We are in a position to confidently assure you that this event will entail 70 hours of opulent living, exotic culinary dinning and inconceivable entertainment value.

So, the time for procrastination is fast nearing the end, therefore please confirm your booking through [email protected].

Kind Regards,  

Dilwar Ali
