hello Andy!!!
Our local group here in Manila really want to be there at the conference but unfortunatelly not all of us have the financial capabilties, but we're making an effort in finding a sponsor to atleast have a representative for our local group here in the Phillipines!I really love to be there.. :love
We hope nextime it'll be held here in our country?
More power to the group and fellow thal there!Godbless!!!

Hi guys
Those of you looking for sponsorship can look to the major pharmaceutical companies. They do sponsor quite a few from each country for every conference. Look to those comapanies that deals with chelation drugs. The major one :winky
But best to go to your local NTAs cos these companies would give the grant to the NTAs for them to decide who should go.
But again, no harm trying.

George and Ms. Tuli were in the meeting representing TIF and I was representing MTS thats when I gave them the idea.
Oh my god they listened to me how shocking! haha

Haha sorry ash to tell you this, but this webcast thing has totally NOTHING to do wtih TIF. We, the organisers came up with the idea somewhere along the way but not sure if it would work. Response doesnt look too good though. Might just scrape it because of the extra cost.
BTW this conference is organised by the local commitee in Singapore who has the full organisational control. TIF doesnt have much to do with it. They lend their support and give suggestions.

I was amazed at the Dubai conference when Shilpa tried to get copies of the tapes of the talks and found out most didn't exist. Let's hope the Singapore conference tapes every single talk and presentation and also webcasts them.

Hi Andy
Thanks for the suggestions. We will take into account these suggestions but I really cant promise ok? Cost is a VERY big factor here. We want the best for the patients and medical personnels attending this conference, but we have to jump through obstacles.
