I received another invitation recently to attend the Work-Life Balance Congress themed “The Way Forward” held from the 14-15 July 2010 at the Swiss Garden Hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Following last year’s successful conference, I was excited to see what this year had in store.

This year’s conference was organised by NIEW (NAM Institute for the Empowerment of Women Malaysia), Gorgeous Geeks, Ministry of Women Family and Community Developmment and eHomemakers. The 2-day program was filled with exciting speakers and panelists from Malaysia and abroad. Speakers from the USA, Netherlands and Switzerland were connected directly via live-web conference facilities, thanks to Cisco.
