Thank You
To Whom it may concern:
I am a secondary educator enrolled at Western Kentucky University’s Doctoral Program. I was one of the students you presented to during the week of March 9th-13th. I appreciate you taking the time to meet with us. I really enjoyed learning about your company and culture. The experience has given me a new global perspective I could not have gained through any course or lecture. This experience was so positive for me and has encouraged me to take more courses abroad. I think each student at Western Kentucky University should have at least one global experience during their studies. I only hope their experiences are as influential as mine. If I can assist you in any way in the future, do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Cornwell Portland High School Teacher

Drum Stompers Media Appearances
They cool! They are sassy! They are all about passion and fun! They are the outLOUD Drum Stompers!
They are taking the people by storm and even the media are getting hot over them!
The first Open Mic Nite of year 2009 with the theme ‘outLOUD Drum Stompers’ took place in outLOUD Academy, Damansara Perdana on 30 January was a hit and it is a very entertaining session for the invited guests.
The main difference between outLOUD Drum Stompers and other percussion bands is that their show was more than just performance to the audience. It involves the participation of the entire audience into the show that created the ‘fun feeling’ as if they are part of it. This brought about the electrifying interaction between the Stompers and the audience that left everyone feeling at top notch.
As reported in the Star newspaper on February 3, the event was an entertaining affair. In fact, there was more to it!
Now, the excitement has just begun.
Just a week after the Open Mic Nite, the major breakthrough came. The outLOUD Drum Stompers was featured live for the first time on TV3 in their Malaysia Hari Ini morning show on February 6 and their captivating appearance scored once more and caught the attention of another TV channel, RTM 1.
RTM 1 featured the outLOUD Drum Stompers in their morning show, Selamat Pagi Malaysia the following day. The outdoor live feat that took place by the Titiwangsa lake exhilarated not only the talk show hosts but also the production crews and morning joggers as well!
The outLOUD Drum Stompers is now officially introduced to the nation and is set to make waves across Malaysia in a snap of the fingers.
Brace yourself for the upcoming rides with the outLOUD Drum Stompers!
Ernie Chen UiTM talk: "The Adventure of Life: Unlocking Opportunities"
For the 250 students of UiTM’s AUSMAT program, life was they know it, has taken on a more positive and grateful turn. From not wanting to pursue fields of study allotted to them, these students experienced a change of heart and recognized the fantastic opportunity availed to them once Asia’s No. 1 Motivator was through with them. The hour long motivational session conducted by Ernie Chen is part of ATCEN’s corporate responsibility endeavor.
Here is what one attendee had to say:
DEAR ERNIE,
I would like to take this opportunity to THANK YOU for coming to the International Education Centre and gave a motivational talk to the AUSMAT students. Not only were the students motivated, I myself were impressed and greatly motivated by you. I could feel that you have reached everyone who was there in the hall because there was praised everywhere. Bringing in the musical team was indeed a bonus to us.
I just don't know how to thank you enough anyway all I can say is GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!
Looking forward to see you again at Career & Industrial Relation Expo (CaiREx) at UiTM on 26 February 2009.
For your information I had fruitful discussions with Ms Aneesa regarding programs between ATCEN Communications Sdn Bhd and UiTM especially on the "The Longest Motivational Talk" in Malaysia.
Thank you and looking forward to more collaboration with ATCEN Communications Sdn Bhd.
Warm Regards,

Hi Ernie
Almost every day now, I have received emails from one of your outfits on your company's activities. Most recent was today's email on the Drum Stompers activity. Didn't know that it was from your company till I saw your picture and presto, Training Touch Sdn Bhd came
to view.
