The ANC II themed “dare to dream dare to inspire” was held on January 27-30 2009 and it took place at Wisma LPMP Srondol Semarang. The special thing from this ANC was the election process to choose new president Aiesec Indonesia term 09/10, which is called MCP. And also there was election to choose Vice president who help MCP to run Aiesec Indonesia, or called MCVP. The OC Records this ANC had followed by about 80 delegates and most of them were the executive member and successor from each LC.
Shortly, it could be described that the programs of ANC II were running well. During 4 days and 3 nights, the ANC always started with opening plennary and ended with some cool parties. In opening plennary, there were roll dance (the unique dance that only aiesec has), gossip box, punishment, and wishes. The parties held with some theme such as Latino style and drakula night.

Every delegates seemed enthusiastic and curious, it can be seen from a lot of questions that they asked for. The session was interesting! Besides there were great games about HIV spreads and also there was simulation about how to use condoms properly. “I swear to god, this is my first time to use condom! I feel disgusting at first, the condom a little bit sticky coz the rubber surface was covering with some liquid..but it was pretty good for my sex education hehe”, said Eka one of delegates from LC UD. Good Job PERFORMA!.....After dinner,learning network day session was held by 3 entrepreneurs from India who helped LC UD to run PBOX entreprenurship.They were Kuntal, Sudhir and Sidhard and They were so inspiring and pushing our spirit to become a young entrepreneur.

Good Job LC UD!” Said Kelly one of the judges. After the competition, the delegates went to the serious moment. The Topic was about analyze current LC condition. Every delegates were decided into several groups, first session mixed up and 2nd session based on per LC. It had so many learnings & inspiring moment, coz every delegates could share about the strength and weaknesses of their LC to another. But before the first session started, they gathered based on their department, such as communication, ICX, TM, etc and they analyzed current condition of department (all LC) snd wrote down the results into the flipchart and stick up to the wall. Every LC could follow the activites which they thought better than them, just like how succesfull open recruiment LC Bandung, and another LC could get learning from that.
