About the Canadian Association of Malaysia
A bit of our history
The Canadian Association of Malaysia (CAM), formerly known as the
Canadian Women's Association (Persatuan Wanita-Wanita Canada), was formed in
1970 as an organization to support the needs of expatriate women living in Kuala
Lumpur. Since then, Kuala Lumpur has evolved into a modern city and the
needs of expats have changed with it. In 1994, CAM refocused its objectives towards the needs of the
expatriate family as a whole rather than just the needs of expatriate women.
Objectives of our association
- To help expatriate families adjust to life in Malaysia by providing support, networking and social activities
- To help selected local charities by raising funds at our annual charity events (CAM has raised
over
RM 1,000,000 over the years)
The management of CAM
The Executive Committee of the Canadian Association of Malaysia consists of volunteer
committee members who are elected at the Annual General Meeting, which is held in February each year. Without
the support of those volunteers, we would not be able
to accomplish the various goals we set for our organization.
