20 Oct'11 Opening Ceremony

Today was the opening ceremony for our workshop "Food Processing and Equipment Selection for Developing Countries". Woke up late, I didn't really have any breakfast, mostly because I was too nervous for the opening speech.

Yeah, the organizer pointed me out of nowhere to give an opening speech as a representative of participants. **) feichang jinzhang!! It was my first time to delivering speech as far as I remember, and it was in English, and most of the audiences are older than me. zhende tebie jinzhang!

Some important people came to the opening ceremony, Mr. SUN Jian, the director of International Cooperation Dept., Ministry of Sci&Tech, PRC; Dr. HUO Hongwei, assistant researcher of CSTEC, Ministry of Sci&Tech; Ms. WANG Jie, the Executive Vice President of China National Research Institute of Food and Fermentation Industries (CNRIFFI); Mr. HUANG Yutong, the Vice President of CNRIFF; and Mr. Aris Heru Utomo, the 1st Secretary of Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia.

It was my honored to deliver the speech in front of them and the other participants. I thank God for this chance, may it bring glory to your name.

I met the other participants today, 20 participants, 12 countries in total. It is my 1st time to meet and know Iranian people, Democratic People's of Republic Korea, Costa Rica, Cambodia and Kyrgyzstan people. **) I'm so excited to know them better! The other participants come from Thailand, Mongolia, Malaysia, and Vietnam. There are some participants who haven't come yet, they come from Nigeria and Egypt. Can't wait to meet them!
