(blame it on my travel) We did a pgDay Asia in Singapore, last year and we would be doing another one next year. We have a User Group in Singapore and the next meetup is planned on 18th Aug. Here is a link: http://www.meetup.com/PUGS-Postgres-Users-Group-Singapore/events/232683291/ We can do a meetup in Malaysia (register a new group or use the same one). Let me know when you are in KL and we would liaise to see how we can host a meetup there. I can come down (and also tap on my employer's channels to promote this meetup group). If you have already setup a meetup group, I would like to be a part of it.
