WELCOME TO Canberra

A welcome from AJS Canberra President, Stuart Forsyth

The AJS(ACT) is pleased to be hosting the 5th biennial NFAJS conference. We invite you to join us and help make this a successful and memorable occasion.

This biennial conference is a great opportunity to network and to meet others engaged in promoting friendship and exchange between Australia and Japan. The 2010 conference is also an opportunity to learn of exciting new networks that are emerging between Australia and Japan and of the web-based tools that are making communication across borders easier than ever before.

Presentations will specifically deal with using the internet and website to maintain relationships with organisations in Japan. New professional, cultural and artistic networks will be presented along with the way in which they have been developed and maintained. Everyone involved in Australia-Japan networking will gain from this focus.

This will also be an opportunity for Japan-Australia Societies to visit and meet and network with their counterparts in Australia. Together this will be a celebration of our common purpose in promoting friendship and exchange between out two countries.

The conference will be held in the beautiful surrounds of University House at the Australian National University. It is timed to coincide with the season when Canberra’s gardens are in full bloom and when it is over you will be able to enjoy a tour of picturesque Canberra and its surrounds.

So come and join us. You’ll be made very welcome and will have a fruitful and memorable time.

Stuart Forsyth
President
