It has been a roller coaster ride for me since Team Malaysia wanted to organize a conference. The idea was mooted actually to have seminar/talk or a Steemit Conference, with the idea and angle we heading of Mini Asia Steemfest. Since the SteemFest is held on the other side of the world, it will be too costly for some Steemians in South East Asia to fly to attend. (I know some will, but a lot cant due to many factors and personal reasons).
Last Month 
and 
Borneo Blockchain Summit
That's when the birth of Borneo Blockchain Summit was born and initiate. The three of us look at each other and asking How are we gonna organize if we don't have the money? All kinds of the idea were thrown on the table, the scope, the angle, the details, the venue and etc. To fast forward and cut the lame stories. So, we decided the conference to be held as below:
Date: 8 Sept 2018
Venue: University Malaysia Sabah (UMS)
We are bringing in top blockchain speakers around South East Asia to spearhead the Summit. All the information on Borneo Blockchain Summit can be access through the website here. It will eventually lead you the Eventbrite page for a purchase of your ticket.

A Call for Help Crowd Funding
Now, we have come to the world of Reality, everything needs money to run and organize. We understand that we will be charging participants for the 1-day event summit. However, in this region, we can't charge people with the expensive entrance ticket like some other blockchain summit. With an early bird Ticket of RM80.00 per pax and at the door purchase of RM120.00 per pax, it is barely cover the cost.
On top of that, we will be having to meet up session with the speakers and hotel accommodation, all this is paid by the organizers. With that said, we barely touch the mark of the perfect budget.
On the other hand, all the working committees and volunteers for this Summit, are all from the Team Malaysia Steemit Family. None of us are paid to do this besides doing a post like this. To lower the burden of the Organiser Committee budget, we have decided and pledge that this post-payout rewards will be donated to
