The Asian Pacific Orthodontic Society (APOS) Gets Global Exposure with Its Participation in the 7th International Orthodontic Congress The Asian Pacific Orthodontic Society has its very own orthodontic conference (APOC), which is now held every 2 years, since its inception in 2001. However , this time the APOS decided to sacrifice having its own 7th Asian Pacific Orthodontic Conference and instead, incorporate it with the WFO’s 7th International Orthodontic Conference to achieve global exposure. Being a regional Affiliate organization of the WFO, the APOS, under the vibrant leadership of Dr. Somchai Satravaha (also a member of the WFO Executive Committee representing Central & East Asia), wanted to show its mother organization, the WFO, a 100% support for its endeavor. Five years of painstaking preparations for this project by the WFO bore fruit: over 4000 delegates flocked to Sydney for this event. |

It was almost the break of dawn last Jan.24 and I found myself on unfamiliar territory. It was dark and the buses speeding along Quirino Ave. did not seem welcoming. We were told to make our way to the Manila Hotel side of the Quirino Grandstand. The meeting time was 5.30 am. I looked at my watch – 5.45. “Oh no…What will Jose say?”
