Sport Activities

Swimming team
Nam Dương
Swimming activity has been started few months ago with just about 5, 6 members. Now we have nearly 20
swimming at a standard 50 meter-long swimming pool every Saturday morning. Since the swimming activity
performed, EZIT members have more time being out together. After swimming time, we also have breakfast,
coffee together.
There are a lot of funs during swimming time. Mr. Nghia, iSeries manager, now can swim half of pool (25
meters) after many cheers from other members. We said “swim for your wife, Mr. Nghia, you can last as long
as the time you swim”. Remember that at the first time, he swam out about 5 meters off the pool’s edge then
turned back. He feared that he would not have enough energy.

Swimming for your health!


Some people swim the way that you can not call its name: breast-stroke, butterfly, ect. It is really funny.
Some other people improve their swimming skill a lot after a few months, including me (haha). I usually tell
others that I found a secret formula: breathing. But until now nobody gets it/.
So far, we don’t have any competition among members, but after a very excited competition in the recent
company trip, there will be some in the near future.

Football teams Ý Huỳnh


In our lives and daily works, having strong power will
surely bring us success. But, sometime, we forget about
the most important element that can bring more success
besides our tries: Solidarity. This is not only our success,
but also our pride cause EZIT family always and forever
lives and works under this strong solidarity.
At weekends, we usually play soccer at Phu Tho Sport
Club. At the first time, everybody seemed to be like a fish
out of water as most of us had never ever play football
before. So the open match between Windows and Java
teams made all footballers nearly exhausted. Each round
has only 30 minutes but they often had to take 5-minute-
A bitter conflict phase between Windows and Java
break after each 10 minutes. In the end, although all team players
felt quite tired, they still show happiness on their faces and
began interested in playing this king sport.

Later, in order to make all teams close-knit together as
well as maintain a better relationship, we decided not to play
with separate teams but mixed together and set up only 2
formations: Manchester EZIT vs. Real EZIT that included all
members in Windows, Java, Iseries, etc. We believed that
with this special arrangement, solidarity and team-work
spirit will develop to a higher degree during each match.

After some four internal matches, EZIT


players seem to be improved and play better so
we decide to have external competitions with
other companies. It is time for us to show our
strong solidarity as well as our high team spirit.

Weekly competitions are still organized, and


we, EZIT members always work, play and enjoy
our lives within each match.

English Courses
Hải Trương
English is currently considered at a universal language; this alone should convince us of its importance in
our lives. It is a major language used on the internet, which has in the last decade become a major and vital tool
in the way we access information, conduct business transactions and communicate in general. Imagine not

EZITS Newsletter – Your Timely Information

being able to understand English while conducting a search on the history of the America's for instance, your
whole purpose would be defeated since most of the history would be written in English. Even computer
languages are based on the English language and all of the internet's URLs are based on the English alphabet. In
today's world not having at least a simple understanding or knowledge of the English language would leave one
considerably handicapped.
With English we are able to bridge cultural, economic, and even social gaps, in turn we are able to better
understand and tolerate each other. Therefore it is not just important but in fact crucial that the English language
be learnt by all individuals.
Understanding the importance of English, EZIT frequently offers English courses for all employees by
inviting good teachers outside for training them. There are two classes –one for beginners and another for
intermediate persons- last from three to four months taken place in turns to all people. Employees will be
trained all skills such as reading, speaking, listening and writing.
Beside the purpose of improving English skills for employees, EZITS would like to exchanges its members
with ACOM’s –a partner of EZITS from America- for business in the future.
Hope that the English classes are not only helpful for employees to improve English skills but also
contribute to strengthen solidarity between them in particular and are the significant means of building solid
bridge between EZITS and ACOM in general.

Annual Summer Vacation


Mai Trần
As soon as the summer coming, EZIT offers a trip
for its members and their families with the aim of
enhancing team-work, self-confidence and
strengthening solidarity among employees, which
benefits the company in terms of higher efficiency and
productivity. One year has been elapsed since the
previous trip and we all have been looking forward to
having the 2008 trip which we can sit down together
to have beer, to overlook the colleagues rivalry, to
share happiness, sadness and to wish good future for
the company as well as for ourselves.
2008 trip took us to a wonderful place, which
owns one of the most nine beautiful beaches in
Vietnam, Ninh Chữ, Phan Rang – Tháp Chàm town, We are a big family!
Ninh Thuận province. We together spent three days
and two nights in a three starts resort facing Bình Sơn
beach with full of exciting beach games, matches and,
of course, cheery laugh. Bình Sơn is a completely
beautiful long white sandy beach, where we can warm
up ourselves such as jogging along or soaking our
bodies in swimming pool with warm freshwater or in
the fresh sea, curving close along as the green-belt of
the resort. What’s a wonderful place! However, space
factor was not important at all as we considered time
of being out together at the most worthy issue. Time
was not long enough for our activities, our shows.
There are still unsolved “enmities” and unexecuted
“plots”.

At 4:00 AM, 26/7/2008, buses picked us up at Hòa Bình Tourist Company – too early but it is not a
problem. We were very eager for the journey. It took us eight hours from Hồ Chí Minh to Ninh Chữ on buses
with history stories about the places along the road, funny quizzes, and games. No one could sleep with such a
happy case and no one felt tired. We arrived Ninh Chữ at 12: 30 PM. After having lunch at Hoàn Cầu, checking
in resort and taking a break for tow hours, we were ready for beach competitions. The first day passed with full
of activities and with…committee leader’s worries: “Are our colleagues strong enough for tomorrow
activities?”
Surprisingly, the second day began with cheerful
smiles on all of members’ faces. We were all ready for
Vĩnh Hy Bay Discovery Journey and the evening plan.
Vĩnh Hy is really a virginal natural bay with white
sand beach, steep rocky mountain ranges, miraculous
caves, and spectacular waterfalls, streams babbling in
the innumerable and extensive forest. Moreover, we
could see colorful corals and fishes through boat glass
bottom. (I just heard from my colleagues. Because at
that time, I got sea-sick and saw nothing! Haha)
Anyway, Vĩnh Hy is a beautiful bay.

Hi there! Is Vĩnh Hy bay beautiful?


The second evening was competitions of our soccer players and swimmers. They practiced and that was
time for their shows. We are proud of our athletes – want to have contest with them? EZIT Solutions, 180-182

Finally, the night we were waiting came, Gala Dinner, which considered at the first half 2008 assessment
ceremony, and once again, the night was very great with interesting information from Ms. Hiền Nguyễn, Mr.
Hoàng Nguyễn and tough of well-prepared shows. “The activities provided were fun, the singing contests were
tough since too many good singers, the fashion shows were too fashioned, the nights were short, the songs were
too lovely, the drinking was… not fair (I drank too much) and the atmosphere was memorable.” said, Mr.
Hoang Nguyen, EZIT Technical Advisor. Well, let wait for the next trip, sir!

Three days and two nights seemed too short to us with numerous of memorable events. We all enjoyed and
look forward for such a wonderful vacation next year.
