As you perhaps know, Indonesia was appointed as the host for the next AFCMA Congress. I do hope that all of you, Board and Members of AFCMA will make a note in your calendar for this important date, so that you can schedule your presence at the congress from now on. I would also urge Board and Members in other regions within FIAMC to come and attend the Congress. The Organizing Committee has chosen Bali as the location of this congress, to attract more participants. Most of you would have heard of Bali as one of the favorite tourist destinations in the world. We assure you that aside from the interesting topics that will be discussed in the congress, there will also be opportunity for you to see the beauty of the Paradise Island of Bali. Please go through the following pages in this announcement, especially the Congress Programme. There are still some vacancies for congress speakers that you may be able to fill.

Welcome Message From The President of AFCMA


Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, It is my honour and privilege to welcome you to the 15th Congress of the Asian Federation of Catholic Medical Associations. In November 2010 the International Catholic Medical Community (ICMC) Bali Branch was officially formed in Bali. Some members of AFCMA Executive Committee were fortunate to be able to witness this auspicious occasion and to offer advice to the Organizing Committee of the 15th AFCMA Congress which will be held here. We note that both ICMC and Perdhaki are co-oorganizing this important event. We are truly impressed by the enthusiasm and commitment shown by the Organizing Committee led by Dr. Albert Hendarta to ensure that all of you coming to this beautiful island of Bali with its tropical forests, sandy beaches, coral reefs and fantastic shopping outlets will want to extend your stay here after the Congress. The Theme chosen for the Congress is The Challenges of Catholic Doctors in the Changing World. As practicing Catholics we are told to uphold our Churchs Teachings in the face of challenges from modern technology which has its good and bad points. We are faced with the challenges of trying to protect human life from the beginning to the end of human life. We must also uphold our Biomedical Ethics as Catholic Doctors e.g. we support the adult stem cell research and the usage of adult stem cells to as treatment to replace damaged or diseased tissues. We do not support embryonic stem cell research where embryos are harvested are then destroyed for the sake of medical research. There is a great future for producing induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from adult stem cells but the technique has not been perfected yet. iPS have the ability to change into any adult cell in the body and there is no ethical issue involve here. All these and other important and interesting issues confronting the Catholic Doctor will be discussed in detail here at the 15th AFCMA Congress. We sincerely hope that we will all be enlightened and empowered by the Holy Spirit after this Congress and will be able to respond and defend our Churchs Teachings whenever such challenges arise in our daily life. Finally we must thank the Organizers: ICMC and Perdhaki for the splendid effort they have made for co- hosting this 15th AFCMA Congress and making our stay in Bali a truly memorable one. In Jesus Christ, Dr. Freddie Loh President AFCMA (Asian Federation of Catholic Medical Associations)
