Hi all
I quite support the idea to form a committee for determining the affairs of
SotM Asia. It might be able to make the decision easier.
Sorry for keeping quiet in the list. But I do follow up with the mailing.
Either Bogor or Bangkok is a good place for me. Thus, I was only
"listening" to the very long discussion on the locations, and waiting for
the vote. But anyway, this SotM Asia seems to go to Bangkok and next year,
it will be held in Indonesia. It's great! I'm glad to help to organize both
SotM Asia.
By the way, I'm also organizing SotM Taiwan that will be held on 9 Nov. at
Academia Sinica. According to the experiences from last year, we estimate
that there will be 100 -120 people attend to this event. We appreciate that
Taichi agreed to be a keynote speaker for the SotM Taiwan 2013. All of you
are welcome to join this event.
Cheers,
Dongpo
