AIT Welcome Show
or scores of students arriving at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), the Welcome Show is their first ‘real’ taste of their campus life ahead. Internationality and diversity add to the pomp, pageantry and grandeur of this signature event which is quintessentially “AIT.” On 19 September 2014, as the curtains rolled, teams from 14 countries displayed their talents and competed for honours. A highlight this year was student performances from Bangkok University and Thammasat University.
Eight hours of rigorous performances later, the results were announced with Nepal winning both the solo and group song competitions. Myanmar won the group dance, Thailand won the talent competition, while the team from Sri Lanka was the winner in drama. Mr. Antonio P. Jegillos Jr. of Philippines and Ms. Sharon Soe of Myanmar were crowned as Mr. and Ms. AIT respectively. See photo gallery on p.5 >>>
