PyCon APAC started in Singapore in 2010 as a way for the regional python users and developers to get together at a place closer to home. By inviting keynote speakers and key python personalities from other parts of the world to the PyCon APAC, it has opened up opportunities for the regional python users and developers to collaborate and learn from one another.
After Singapore in 2010 to 2012, PyCon APAC moved to Tokyo in 2013, and was hosted twice by Taipei until 2015 and is in Seoul for 2016.
On the second day of #pyconapac2016 in Seoul, we have made the announcement that the regional PyCon APAC for 2017 will return to South East Asia and be hosted in Kuala Lumpur.
We are excited for this opportunity and believe it will much benefit the young but growing python community in this part of the world. Looking forward to seeing you in Kuala Lumpur in 2017!

TICKETS
There are 2 types of tickets available. Please read the explaination below:
- Subsidized ticket
- Full price ticket
Subsidized tickets:
The subsidized ticket is basically a half-priced ticket, from the actual cost of a person to attend the conference. You will get everything a full-priced ticket will get: Access to the conference, morning coffee/tea and snacks, lunch and coffee/tea breaks. Your attendance are being supported in half by our generous sponsors.
As such, we would like to ask you (the community) to only purchase the subsidized ticket if you can't afford the full-price ticket but you really would want to come to PyCon APAC 2017. This will usually mean you're a student, or you're coming from out-of-town, or you're coming with your own pocket money and you're coming to learn about the wonderful language and the people that make it happen.
If you're sending in a talk proposal, please feel free to also purchase the subsidized ticket.
The subsidized ticket is limited in number, so please think carefully before purchasing these.
Note that NO OFFICIAL RECEIPTS will be given out for subsidized tickets.
Full-priced tickets:
As we would like to give every opportunity for locals to attend PyCon APAC, if you're coming from outside of Malaysia, or you're coming paid by your company and need a receipt with your company name on it, or you're coming to pitch your business or trying to recruit people, or if you're already successful in leveraging python in your business or life, or if you simply can afford it, we would like to ask you to purchase the full-price ticket.
