Message from the President Dr Louis Liu

亲爱的FASAVA会员：大家好！

我欣喜的看到FASAVA大会在前几届主席的卓越领导下，以及在各位理事们的努力下，我们的FASAVA大会已经成功的举办了7届。在这个过程中，我们收获了知识，结识了友谊，使得亚洲区域小动物兽医师们彼此之间更加的了解，对平衡亚洲小动物兽医水平发挥了巨大作用。

明年的FASAVA大会将于2017年8月11-14日在美丽的澳大利亚黄金海岸举办，同期举办的还有世界兽医牙科大会。在此，我真诚的邀请各位在2017年8月参加FASAVA大会，我在美丽的澳大利亚，等待你们的到来！

Dearest FASAVA members: Greetings and Good day!

We have now held seven Congresses to date. As President of FASAVA I would like to show my appreciations to the previous Presidents and past and present Executive members for all their efforts. You have all done a great job to make these events successful!

During the past few years we have not only increased our knowledge but also made many great friendships that will last for many years and span many countries. Our FASAVA Congresses help all Veterinarians in the Asia-Pacific region to learn from each other. It has played a huge role in improving and balancing the level of small animal veterinary medicine and surgery in our region.

Next year's FASAVA Congress will be held on August 11-14th, 2017 on the beautiful Gold Coast in Australia. This congress will be held in conjunction with the World Veterinary Dental Congress.
I sincerely invite you to attend the FASAVA Congress in August 2017 in Australia. I look forward to seeing you there in beautiful Australia!
