<the 1st COC meeting: NLs shared their ideas and visions of SSEAYP2014>
In their discussion on Sep 17-18, they talked that the word "RESPONSIBILITY" should be the symbolic word that embodies the ideals, principles and personality of the 41st SSEAYP. The concept of "Responsibility" can be interpreted and integrated in many occasions: Responsibility with Friendship, Responsibility with Consequences, Responsibility for the Future, etc.,
They made a consensus that NLs will work as a team and shall work hard for ALL PYs regardless of contingent, SGs, sub-committees etc.,
On Sep 19, they flew back to their countries for their final preparation and promised each other to come back again with their own PYs on October 29, 2014.
