Hobdell U.S. Department of State Regional Education Officer, East Asia Pacific Welcome Message from the EARCOS Executive Director Dear ETC Delegates: Welcome to the EARCOS Teachers’ Conference (ETC) 2017 at the lovely Sutera Harbour Resort. We are happy to be back in Sabah, North Borneo. This ETC offers three excellent keynote presenters. Kim Phuc Phan Thi, Christophe Galfard, Aaron and Kaitlin Tait. We have nine pre-conferences including AP/IB and WASC. Our delegates have over 100 work- shop sessions to choose from and they are geared to meet the diverse needs of our teachers. In addition, our job-alike sessions will provide an opportunity for teachers to meet with their colleagues, who work in similar content areas. Of the more than 100 workshops, your EARCOS colleagues will present 60 of them. As always, these workshops are practical, topical, and relevant to our work in East Asia. Please support your fellow teachers and try to attend as many of these as possible. Also, we have nearly 40 vendors who will be exhibiting at the conference. Please stop by their tables. The EARCOS Teacher Advisory Group selected the Kim Phuc Phan Thi Foundation as this year’s charity. As you will see, Kim Phuc is one of our keynoters and her charity “helps heal the wounds suffered by in- nocent children”. Advance thanks for your generosity and support. Thanks to all our ETC teacher representatives who have spent many hours assisting their teachers with workshop proposals, registration for the conference, and hotel and transportation arrangements. Without their dedication, it would be impossible to host our conference the way we do. Thanks to our EARCOS staff members who have worked tirelessly to assist with the many details and logistics. The contributions of Mses Elaine and Vitz and Sirs Ver, Edzel, and Robert have been – again – admirable and their collective attention to the vast array of details of our conference is commendable. Our assistant director Joe Petrone has been invaluable during the planning process. Finally, it is always my hope that our delegates make new contacts, embrace challenges from our present- ers, renew friendships, and enjoy our hospitality. Visit our exhibitors and let them know that we appreciate their sponsorship, which helps us provide the best professional development possible. I’m proud and happy to be the director of this wonderful organization. Finally, I hope you find some time to enjoy the splendour of North Borneo, Sabah, Malaysia! Dick Krajczar and the EARCOS Team.

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.
