CITO celebrated Lucia at the office, where we started with singing some Lucia songs while the guests enjoyed some gingerbreads and “glögg”. After that we chatted with the guests and answered questions about Lucia and Sweden. We also took the chance to teach the Taiwanese the Swedish traditional “dance-around-the-Christmas-tree”, which was very funny and appreciated. It was a really nice evening with a lot of Christmas spirit!
CITO participated in Global Village Day which for the second year was organized by the organization Aisec and was a chance for exchange students at NCTU to show culture and food from their countries.
CITO held a movie night, showing one of the movies from the classic Swedish series “Jönssonligan”.
We have now released our Operation Plan for the autumn of 2012. If you are interested in reading it, you can find it here.
Issue number 20 is now printed and released! It is available at the Chalmers International Taiwan Office, on the Chalmers Johanneberg campus and of course on this website. Enjoy!
Three of the office members visited Atlas Copco, after some troubles to find the office. David Goetschalckx and Winson D Devlin greeted us with enthusiasm and presented a well extensive presentation of Atlas Copco for the Asia region and the complete Atlas Copo Group.
After a night full of laughs, cries, gasps and a lot of chips, chocolate and candy, everyone was amazed by the hard life of the Swedes in the olden days. Also, the guests were content with the acting quality and the scenery presented in the movie. Thanks for attending!
NCTU students were invited to the office to try the delicious Swedish pastry. To have a “fika” is a really important thing in Sweden, so naturally we had to have one at the office. Everyone was welcome to come and mingle, drink some coffe/tea/juice and taste our cinnamon buns!
Chalmers International Taiwan Office invited the local Taiwanese students to try the Swedish sport floorball. To round up the opening day, students who had not gotten enough were invited to learn how to play floorball in the NCTU gymnasium. During that evening there was a lot of sweat, many goals and a lot of fun!
Chalmers International Taiwan Office invited the local Taiwanese students to learn about Sweden and the Chalmers experience. Swedish food was served and enjoyed by everyone. The mid-day event had happenings like an introductory speech, presentations from NCTU students who had been to Chalmers, a presentation from CITO and a lot of mingling! The office was filled with people and there was a lot of excitement.
