APAPARI was formed in 1997 by a group of
paediatricians who recognized the need to have an organization
representing the fields of paediatric allergy, respirology
and immunology in the region. The goals of APAPARI and
of all doctors looking after children everywhere is the
same: to promote the health and give the best care to
the children that we serve. It is the goal of APAPARI
in particular to increase knowledge and advance the practice
of pediatric allergy, respirology and immunology for optimal
patient care in the Asia Pacific region.
Over the years, APAPARI has organized or
co-organised various educational activities. Since 2005,
it has become an annual tradition for us to hold joint
meetings with professional bodies of specialists from
our region. These interactions with national societies
has provided APAPARI with the much needed academic interaction
and exchange with academicians and specialists from these
nations.
As President, I am honoured to continue the tradition
of past APAPARI presidents. It is my hope that educational
activities through APAPARI will continue to gather momentum
and continue in the years to come. The bringing together
of scientists, allergists and pediatricians can only
foster closer ties between the specialists of this region,
which will ultimately translate to better patient care
and management. I hope that all APAPARI members will
join me in this endeavour.
Warmest Regards,
Bee Wah LEE President 2007-2010, Asia Pacific Association
of Allergy,
Respirology and Immunology
