  INTERNATIONAL AROID SYMPOSIUM, BORNEO, 2004
From: "Peter Boyce" peterboyce at myjaring.net> on 2003.11.15 at 08:19:35(10810)
Dear All

I am seriously investigating the possibility of organizing an INTERNATIONAL
AROID SYMPOSIUM, in November 2004 here in Kuching, the state capital of
Sarawak, Malaysia, on the NW coast of Borneo. The rough outline is for the
symposium to be spread over one week (Sunday evening - Friday inclusive)
with 3 1/2 days of presentations & poster sessions and one day spent in the
field at a nearby National Park.

This is an initial emailing to gauge interest in such a Symposium. If you
think that there is a chance that you will attend, and you wish to receive
the first circular, please email me at the following address:

peterboyce@myjaring.net

In the email, please indicate:

1. Your mailing/postal address in order that I can mail you the first
circular.

2. Your most often used email address (if different to that which you use to
email me this information)

3. Willingness to make an oral presentation or present a poster on:

a. Scientific, or
b. Horticultural, or
c. Travelogue, or
d. Other subject.

In addition to this general email, I will be privately emailing individual
people to ask if they would be willing to present particular lectures.
However, I would ask that ALL those interested in attending respond to this
email.

Very many thanks

Peter

What a wonderful project. Yes, we should be happy attending the symposium. In this case, I could make an oral presentation on Arisaema, of course, scientific subject, details to be given later.
I am very happy to hear from you and - at least I hope - to see you again in Sarawak.
Did you grow arisaemas?

Dear Pete:

I will help you with the organization, present as many oral
presentations as are needed, do posters and, of course attend. It will be a
great meeting I am sure.

Dear Peter,

That's great news!!!!
I'm potentially interested (I'll have to find some money) and I may stay
for a field work if possible.
Please count me for an oral presentation or a poster on Scientific topic.

If it is confirmed that means a lot of work ofr its organization!!!!
We'll be able to discuss more about it later (may be in Lyon in May).

All the best,

Marc
