    Dear Sir/Madam,
    My name is Soo and I am a student. I am very interested to join your group 2 (3D/2N)Hornbill conservation project which will be started on 3rd to 6th September. It is a good chance for me to know more about the natural of Malaysia. Currently, I am joining a 2 months volunteering project in Cambodia and I will go back on 31st of August. Therefore, I am wondering about the registration and payment for the project. Your advise is appreciated. Thank you.

      Hi there, if you can confirm your participation for the September trip, then perhaps you can send in your registration form via email first and once you come back on 31st August, perhaps you can proceed with the payment. Most important to confirm your participation is the registration form and of course settlement of the payment before the trip on 6th September.
