Message from the President

After a very congested and tiresome month of May, during which I participated in the LATAM and NAASC Congresses consecutively, I am now addressing you from the Asian Area Congress in Manila.

 

However, my physical tiredness is well compensated by the outstanding and rewarding experience of meeting good-old friends and of making many new friends from all over the World.
