Becoming a Saniaga life member

No member is exempted from a subscription. Failure to subscribe is failure to be committed to group spirit.

If you pay a sum of 5000/- you become a life member. If you pay 500/- you renew your membership yearly.

Now, at some point in life the person who had been paying 500/- desires to be a life member. He or she pays 5000/-. So the earlier you pay 5000/- the better.

This is with a mind note that the group shall constructively put the money into activities that would generate a reasonable interest to cater for future subscriptions. Also, it is a great show of commitment and desire to see the group excel in becoming a life member.

And who here doesn't want to become  a life member?
