“On behalf of the World Small Animal Veterinary Association I would like to encourage veterinarians to attend the 2nd FASAVA Congress to be held in Bangkok from the 3rd to the 5th of November 2009. I congratulate Dr. Roger Clarke and his Board members on their initiative to form FASAVA and in so doing enhance the communication and co-operation between veterinarians in the Asia Pacific region. The WSAVA is committed to fostering the exchange of scientific information between individual veterinarians and veterinary organizations and will be supporting this congress by co-organising the Animal Welfare stream. Animal Welfare remains a very important goal of the WSAVA and the knowledge you will gain by attending this congress will assist you in educating the general community so as to promote the health and welfare of small animals in your region of the world.”

“The North Veterinary American Veterinary Conference (NAVC) is a not for profit organization with the sole mission of providing world class continuing education for all members of the veterinary healthcare team. Throughout our 25 years of existence, the NAVC has developed programs to provide veterinarians and veterinary technicians with up to date information regardless of geographical location. Through our NAVC Conference, NAVC Institute, NAVC Regionals, the LAVC serving Latin America and our joint venture with AVEPA in Southern Europe (SEVC) we have been able to fulfill and live that mission. The second FASAVA in 2009 provides us with an opportunity to help bring high quality Continuing Veterinary Education to the Asia Pacific region and we at the NAVC are pleased to be part of that effort. As an official supporter, the NAVC will contribute a-three-day NAVC track within the main congress program. Asia is an important emerging region where veterinary practices have incrementally shown remarkable growth and progress. We believe that the 2nd FASAVA 2009 Congress will be an important veterinary event in the region and one that veterinary professionals cannot afford to miss.”
