The 4th Asian Vegetarian Congress was held on Batam Island, Indonesia, 6-10 Nov. More than 1,000 people attended this highly successful event. Some photos are available at http://www.ivu.org/asia-pacific/photos2009/batam/opening.html - more reports and photos will follow soon. This should especially interest anyone planning to attend the next IVU World Veg Congress in Jakarta/Bali, Indonesia in October 2010.

IVU also attended the China Xiamen International Vegetarian Fair, 12-15 Nov. For photos from that one see:

For both the above photo collections, click on the link at the bottom of each page to go to the next page, and on any small photos for bigger versions.

Between these two events, we made many important new contacts in China, and we look forward to this great country playing a much more significant role in IVU in the future.
