Dear Sir / Madam

INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE IN ‘ONE BELT ONE ROAD’ASMO INTERNATIONAL 2019

In recognition of the growing significance of science and mathematics in our daily life and in the general education of
young people; and with the aim of enhancing the development of international contacts between countries within the
Asian region in the field of school education in science and mathematics, an annual science and mathematics
competition has been organized for Primary and Secondary school students.

It is our great pleasure to announce a team and individual competition in the upcoming Asian Science and
Mathematics Olympiad 2019 or ASMO International 2019. On behalf of ASMO International committee, we are
pleased to invite your students to participate in the competition and to represent your country.

Objectives

1.To provide opportunities to all students for exchange views and to share learning experiences in
mathematics and science in an international arena.
2. To provide motivation for students and teachers in schools and in all jurisdiction in teaching
and learning mathematics and science while developing high-order thinking abilities.
3.To develop school-based curricula towards international standard.
4.To promote good relationships and cultural exchange among countries in the network.

It has always been our vision that ASMO International will become another opportunity to expand the level of
competition and to provide more opportunities for primary and secondary school students to experience international
