Mannkal's Focus
Greetings!,
With Christmas fast approaching, the Mannkal office has been extremely busy as we prepare for a busy 2013. Our current Summer Internship program has been the biggest to date as we see our Mannkal Scholars travelling to Hong Kong, Canada, India and the United States to learn and promote the values of the free market and libertarian ideals.
One Mannkal Scholar, Conrad Karageorge, spending the summer at Hong Kong's Lion Rock Institute, has already made his mark! Click here to watch Conrad giving a speech to the Hong Kong Legislative Council on a recent policy proposal that aims to target poverty.
Our thanks to all of our supporters and friends that have helped 2012 to be a great success.
Please feel free to forward this email or any of this material onto your own contacts. To subscribe to this publication, please click here (for new subscribers only).
My regular Mannerisms this month features my Christmas poem titled 'A Festive Thanks', reflecting on the past year. I hope you enjoy the spirit in which it was written.
