Since the CSM is a large-scale conference comparing to the Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) we organise every year, it is preferable to have the Co-convenor with at least 5-year post-fellowship. The Co-convenor appointed by the HKCA will be working closely with the Co-convenor appointed by ANZCA, and the other members of Organising Committee (OC) in the next few years. Regular OC meetings would be conducted at the HKAM Building and occasional travels might be required, if necessary. ANZCA based members of OC will join the OC meetings via teleconferences.
If you are interested in this post and your FHKCA was awarded on or before 31st December 2014, please send your name to kristy@hkca.edu.hk on or before 14th April 2019.Dr Sathasivam AnandacivaWe were saddened to hear of the passing away of Dr Sathasivam Anandaciva on 4th January 2019 at Pok Oi Hospital after long illness.
