Thanks Josh for your guidance.
One of the challenges we are facing now is lack of legal entity here in Singapore. I have run out of time to go through paper work and get one registered.
I have spoken to my employer and they have agreed (in-principle) to be a co-host and Organizing Partner and in-turn they will provide all local help and support. E.g. getting sponsorship money, disbursing the money to speakers for their travel grants, providing Visa letter to speakers and attendees.
Is there anything in this where community will have an issue? I want to make sure we are not doing something which makes the community unhappy.
Regards
Saneer

Create a new organization? Or just send it out under PostgreSQL Singapore.

News is also on the home page. That would be an approporate place to
post a call for presentations.
