good luck then. Do U make abstract in English or does it have to be in Japanese? some of the conferences asks for Japanese abstracts.

hi lil, if your boss is in the committee i can see why you don't have a rush on writing the abstract
toastie
ha! you'd think TJ, but no- this is Japanese efficiency.
Nabisan- the abstract are all in English- the whole meeting is, they're trying to be more international....

thats nice, that's really nice, LiL-3. It is not happening here any time soon. Hope those who are attending this meeting u r going to learn something from this. Is it an international conference?
I attended just one international conference in Japan and that was horrible. Most of the Japanese speakers either presented in Japanese or had their slides in Japanese. Even the session chairmen were sometimes speaking in Japanese. Felt sorry for all the others who had come from around the world. There were not so many of them but felt that their presence was ignored.

Wow thats pretty bad. Nope- they're good for English, though some questions and answers were translated... Its a Japanese meeting, but international people come. Wakayama- so more castles for me

alternatively they could have interpreters as they do in the UN
