Nu Skin’s Southeast Asia (SEA) region held its largest convention yet, when 6,000+ enthusiastic sales leaders created history as they gathered to connect, network and share their successes with one another.
The three-day SEA Regional Convention welcomed visitors from Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore, Brunei and Vietnam to the Singapore Expo Convention and Exhibition Centre from July 16 to 18.
One of the highlights of the Convention was the Force for Good session, where attendees learned about Tarisa Marito, a child from Medan, North Sumatera. Tarisa was diagnosed with congenital heart disease that forced her to use a pacemaker and prevented her from participating in sports or active events in school.
In March 2013, the Nu Skin family helped her receive a heart transplant through the SEA Children’s Heart Fund. Now a junior in high school, Tarisa wowed the crowd by singing a heartfelt song about holding on to your dreams. Steve Lund congratulated the SEA region for the great accomplishment of saving nearly 6,000 lives and creating countless smiles for children and their families.
The convention conference sessions motivated and inspired the audience to continue to create history by being a force for good throughout the world. Melisa Quijano, president of

It served as the opening session of the company’s national conference that continues through Sunday.
Cindy Monroe, the company’s founder, president and CEO, fed the frenzy, strolling onto the stage and declaring “We’re all really passionate — and we love to hug,” drawing a roar.
Clearly, the sales force is likewise enthusiastic about its products: personalized bags and home decor, mostly sold through in-home parties. Thirty-One Gifts sales consultants held 1 million parties, served 8 million customers and reported $740 million in sales, senior staff member Anthony McIntosh told the crowd.
