PREFACE

BACKGROUND

One of the most important variables behind the miracle of the growth speed and recovery in the
Asia economies is the quality of education. The work ethic, ambition and resilience that is embedded
in Asian societies directly influences the education standard in Asian universities. Asian education is
getting better in equipping the people to become productive members of their given societies with
the skills and mentality to be able to successfully compete. We can see today more Asian students
and schools receive continuously top marks in international rankings. This remarkable achievement
also means that the competition among students is getting more intensive.

For students to be able to compete, there is a need for them to open their doors to more
opportunities in education. They need to explore and have some experiments that can enrich their
knowledge as well as their experience. Therefore, Asia Student Summit is held so that the students
can have a platform to exchange knowledge and observe directly all about the educational system,
the idea of studying abroad, and cultural exchange. Furthermore, trough Asia Student Summit, they
will be able to enhance more understanding about Asia society and what they need to be as an Asian
entity.

Food and International Food based on the conditions and agenda. We will
provide non-pork meals as some of the participants are Moslems. If you
have any special needs regarding the foods, please let us know before the
program.

Personal Money

A kind reminder for you that all of the expenses during the program is
already covered in your participation fee. But, you may need to bring your
own extra money to be used during your free time. The amount of money
you should bring will depend on your expense plan while you are in Korea.

Electricity Plug

The standard voltage in Korea is 220 volts (and 60 Hertz, or cycles), and the
outlet has two round holes. If you do not have a multi-voltage travel
adapter, you usually can borrow one from your hotel's front desk for free of
charge (however, some establishments may request a minimal fee as
deposit, covering for possible loss). If you would like to purchase one in
Korea, you can find them at the airport, any of the retail stores, major duty-
free shops, convenience stores or even stationery stores.

Sim Card & Internet Access

During your stay in Korea, you can purchase SIM cards from the major retail
stores, convenience stores or from the website of the respective service
providers. More often than not, this service is cheaper than roaming
phones. Internet service is often provided in public places such as airports,
train stations, and bus terminals in Korea. PC rooms and internet cafes are
also great places to go for and they are mostly 24 hours in operation. In
addition, many of popular tourist sites are equipped with free Wi-Fi
connections as well to help international visitors to stay connected with
friends and families back at home. It is also a popular choice to buy a wifi
card or to rent an egg wifi router in the airport for a more convenient use of
internet service in Korea.

Tips and Tricks

1. Search the information about the destinations as many as possible.

2. Contact the committee as soon as you have arrived in Incheon International Airport. If you still
don’t have SIM Card and you need internet access, just find any WiFi.

3. Always bring your passport as your identity and stick close with it wherever you go. Also bring a
copy of your passport identity to be left at hotel.

4. Bring along a (mini) bag to contain passport, hand phone, wallet, and personal daily belongings.

5. Take a picture of the hotel name or building or anything necessary to you in case you are lost.
English is not the main language in the country.

6. Don’t panic! If you find yourself lost and in you-don’t-know-where location, your belonging
gone missing, or anything unexpected, you just need to ask around or contact the committee or
the authority. PLEASE READ THE SIGN BECAUSE IT TELLS WHERE YOU ARE AND WILL GUIDE
YOU TO WHERE YOU WANNA GO.

7. Bring a pocket dictionary if you don’t feel confidence in English or local language.

8. Respect the local cultures.

9. Bring your own food and drinks (bread, mineral drink) in case you can’t fit the local food taste.
You should be careful especially if you have allergy.

10. Don’t forget to bring your money in KRW. Try your best not to exchange the money after you
get there because it will take time. Better to spend the time for enjoyable activities than
queuing to get exchanged money, isn’t it?

11. If you need any personal belonging, don’t wait to buy it when you are in Seoul (it kinda costs a
lot more though). The committee will not give you much time to walk around and buy
everything and it will be a little bit troublesome if you need something urgent but you have to
look for a shop which sells it first.

12. Take photos as many as possible, but don’t forget to obey the rules.

13. Make a lot of friends! Sure it will make your day more enjoyable and everything becomes
priceless. You should bring along your name card, so you can exchange each other and your
friendship will be forever.

14. You are free to bring any goods from your local region to be given to your new friends.

15. Stick close with the guidebook and the rundown inside.

16. Enjoy, observe, and learn. Being abroad is all about learning something new and understanding
something different.
