In 2004 the then SISWP President, Eileen Mitchell had randomly linked clubs with the theme, ‘Together we can make a difference’, to begin a project. SICB was linked to 4 other clubs namely SI Townsville Breakwater, SI Tropical Tablelands, SI Broome (Australia) and SI Christchurch (New Zealand). There was correspondence for only a year with SI Christchurch.

There has been active correspondence with SI Sydney and SI Kyoto-Toka.

SI Sydney

Members of SICB had met up with SI Sydney members at SWP Conferences and SI Conventions participating in Friendship Link activities sharing information on club projects.

With SI Kyoto-Toka there has been partnership in a project. In 2005 SI Kyoto-Toka member visited SICB and donated RM3300 to the Region of Malaysia for the Tsunami victims in Kuala Muda, Kedah.

The Club donated RM15,685 (50,000yen) for the goat project in conjunction with its 15th Anniversary. President Masako Takahashi handed over 33 goats to 13 indigenous families in Janda Baik. In 2007 the donation of RM1,500 continued for the project. Additional 4 goats were handed to the OA goat breeders from this donation.
