hat a privilege it is to be a part of NewLife™ at this time and place. It is a time of exciting developments and a clear response to the challenges of the economic downturn. Against a background of depressive economic trends, the move of NewLife™ to create a Smart Saver Programme is a catalytic decision that can make networking highly acceptable.

Over the 3 days from 8-10 May 2009, we held the first Leaders Challenge programme in Grace Hill Orchard Lodge (GOL) located in Berjaya Hills, Bukit Tinggi. 70 network leaders from Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Oman came together to be trained in networking skills and the art of building big incomes. It was a time of such energy and intensity and it brought great encouragement and motivation to all those who attended the programme.

In all my years in networking, I have not seen excitement like this and the many commitments made at the end of the programme gives me great optimism for the coming future and progress of NewLife™. I have little doubts watching the participants go back to their respective places of origin that this was a fire that will cast its embers far and wide. Many of these leaders who were there have since written to me sharing about the change that they have brought home with them. There is great anticipation as we move into the next phase of the Smart Saver Programme. This is the phase of converting Smart Savers into active users of both the savers range of products as well as the NewLife™ range of health products. This will also be a move to convert and upgrade Smart Savers to Independent Business Owners and to make them leaders so that each one who has come in will reproduce and bring many more new savers.

True networking involves a people to people move but such traditional channels have not been very efficient. Over the past few years the use of the Internet has been the move of significance in the world of Multi-Level Marketing (MLM). This trend is now poised to take on explosive proportions. At NewLife™ we want to be at the forefront of the convergence of MLM and Internet Marketing. Taken together with the possibilities that Franchise Marketing holds, we want to establish a platform that will sweep across Malaysia and Singapore and into other regions. Today we are getting ready for this move and we will be hosting a Gala Convention from 25 - 27 November 2009 to outline the intended move of NewLife™ into this tremendous arena of opportunity. I am certain 2009 will be a good year.

Yours sincerely,
Hock Siew
