New Asia Pacific Coordinator met the Chaplains and the patron bishop of Sri Lanka University Catholic Students Movement (SLUCSM) on 19^th January 2016 in the Arch Bishop’s House in Colombo, Sri Lanka. During the meeting chaplains wished the new coordinator for his mission in IMCS and discussed the possibilities to collaborate more with the international students’ movement. Further the chaplains discussed about establishing a national coordination as SLUCSM has only a national movement at the moment. The previous national secretariat was dissolved in 80s by the Sri Lankan Bishop’s conference due to the coordination difficulties.
