Preliminary Program Conference Papers and Request for Registration


Dear Conference Delegates,

It's a pleasure to report we now have received numerous communications regarding the International Agarwood Conference and Workshop in Viet Nam, 10 to 15 November 2003. The preparations for our conference are picking up speed and many interesting presentation abstracts have reached us so far. To give you an impression of the subject matter of these papers, we hereby include a preliminary list of presentations. This list is subject to change in substance and tittles. The conference committee will decide on final acceptation of these papers in August. We would like to respectfully request potential presenters to send their abstracts to us in Viet Nam as soon as possible so the conference committee can decide on possible inclusion in the conference program.
