ICAPP Update (11-31)

Dear Members of the ICAPP Standing Committee,

As you may recall, at the 15th SC Meeting held on May 5, 2011, the Communist Party of China(CPC) offered to hold an ICAPP Special Conference in China in early September this year, on the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the CPC.  The CPC also informed that the main purpose of conference would be to provide an opportunity to share development experiences among the political leaders in the region.

In this regard, we are now pleased to forward the pre-notice of the plan to host the ICAPP Special Conference on Development and People's Access, which has been prepared by the CPC. The conference will be held in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China in early September this year.

More detailed information on the conference, including the program, the concept paper on the theme, the list of political parties to be invited, and application forms will be soon provided.

With warm regards,
