This is the result of 1.5 years effort with Zak Sensei in searching for a suitable local host. I was very pround of the outcome, though much time easting in managing the event. It was a successful Geomate conference anyway. Helping the society with the second SEE conference at Osaka. 

An idea came up with the development of a series of workshop at Brisbane. Well accomplished by many audiences, Have a look at the website for more detal.

Was invited to deliver the keynote lecture for the recent achievement for a teaching award in Geotechncial Engineering. Osaka is a nice city.

Hmmm...such a lengthy process to write the application for this award. It is  a huge hounor becasue of the rigorous process in checking the application. Not a bad effort for the 12 years of teaching effort.

Firt time chairing an international conference. Thanks to Geomate for this opportuniety. It was a  nice experience with so many lovely persons in those days.
