Dear Rebecca, 

It seems this project is not going to be a cheap adventure.

However, I am still committed to trying to make it there, at least for adventure's sake.

Please forward the following message to all ISU members, in case there could be anyone interested in attending:

JOINT AAQS/ TANZANIA INSTITUTE OF QUANTITY SURVEYORS CONFERENCE FEES:

1. Venue: Julius Nyerere International Convention Centre, Dar es salaam

2. AAQS executive committee members: free of charge

3. Other AAQS council members: US $ 150 Dollars

4. Other delegates: US $ 250 Dollars, equivalent to UGX 850,000/= at an exchange rate of US $ 1 = UGX 3,400/=

5. Accommodation: High Class Hotels US $ 130 - 275 Dollars (Budget for at least 2 - 3 Nights) equivalent to UGX 442,000 - 935,000/= per night (Budget for 3 Nights would be 1,326,000 - 2,805,000/=)

Mid-range accommodation: US $ 50 per night (Budget for 2 - 3 nights), equivalent to approx. 510,000/= for 3 nights.

6. Air Transport: average US $ 500 return ticket (equivalent to 1,700,000/=)

7. Road/ Bus Transport: Ugx. 140,000 - 160,000/= one way. Budget for Ugx 400,000/=

Bottom line is that the cheapest option is to travel by bus (Ugx 400,000/=) and stay in mid-range hotels (Ugx 510,000/=). Since the majority of us belong to the "Other delegates" category, we have to look for Ugx 850,000/= conference attendance fee. The total minimum cost thus far is Ugx. 1,760,000/=

In my opinion, we can use this trip to tour Dar es salaam city, have at least 2 delegates attending the conference on behalf of ISU, while we do our city tour over the period of the conference, bringing the cost of the trip to about 1,200,000/= by Bus travel.

That's it my friends - we have to work harder!

Tom Joseph Mukasa
