ARLA/CLUSTER: 8th Asia Pacific Regional Air/Internet Jamboree

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

The 8th Asia Pacific Regional Air-Internet Jamboree, hosted by Korea
Scout Association (KSA), takes place August 4-5, 2012 in conjunction
with the 13th Korea National Scout Jamboree.

The Air-Internet Jamboree is a regional event that was established in
2004 in which Scouts can contact each other by means of amateur radio
and through the Internet. Having a live conversation with a fellow
Scout in some other place in the world gives the same excitement like
having a normal Jamboree on the land minus the normal expenses.

Just like the normal Jamboree, the Air-Internet Jamboree is also an
event during which Scouting experiences are exchanged and ideas are
shared. It’s a great and unique opportunity for Scouts of all age
ranges to communicate with each other as if they are nearby when in
actual fact they are all in their own countries. Indeed, Radio
Scouting eliminates the distances and fosters a closer relationship of
the worldwide Scouting movement.
