Dear colleagues,
Good day! I hope all’s well. It is my great pleasure to share my thoughts, as we continue to move forward with our shared vision for the advancement of medical physics in the Asia-Oceania region.
1. Operational Alignment and Solidarity
As we align the operational framework of the AFOMP and its strategic plans with the executive committee (ExCom), I encourage all of you to actively engage with us and to provide invaluable feedback for continuous improvement. The dedication from our ExCom has been solidifying the portfolios of our committee members. We have been working together to achieve our collective goals.
2. Network Strengthening
Mutual communication among AFOMP and its national member organizations (NMOs) is important. AFOMP has been actively reach out and engage with the respective NMOs’ leadership. These connections foster a collaborative environment and keep us informed about the latest developments at the respective country. Moreover, updating the NMOs’ delegates to AFOMP ensures that our representation remains strong and dynamic.
3. Educational Enrichment
The AFOMP School Webinars and AFOMP Monthly Webinars 2023 have been providing invaluable platforms for knowledge sharing and professional growth. I urge all members to actively participate in these webinars, both as attendees and potential speakers. Our commitment to improve medical physics services and to advance the practice of physics in medicine will be able to promise the highest quality medical services for patients in the regions.
4. AFOMP Awards
We have announced that several AFOMP Awards 2023 are open for nominations. These awards recognise outstanding contributions to medical physicists and honour those who have made a lasting impact. I eagerly await the announcement of the successful awardees and look forward to celebrating their achievements.
5. ICMP-AOCMP-ISEACOMP-AMPICON 2023
I wish to welcome all of you to participate in the upcoming ICMP 2023! With the theme “Innovations in Radiation Technology & Medical Physics for Better Healthcare”, we wish this congress will bring plenty of great ideas to promote the advancement in status and standard of practice in our region.
Let us continue to foster a culture of collaboration, innovation and excellence within AFOMP. Together we learn, serve and contribute!
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Aik Hao Ng
Secretary-General, AFOMP
