It is very great pleasure to introduce the Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Society of Asia (PENSA) to you all.
Although it is only 6 years old, the society initially was founded by a group of physicians from Japan, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Pakistan and Thailand.
It was founded on May 6, 1995 in Thailand.
It also was supported by pharmacists, nurses, and dietitians who have been working in the field of nutritional support.
Everyone who is working or interesting in nutritional support in hospitalized patients enable to enroll the society as the membership, not only from Asean countries but also from other countries around the world.
The scientific congress will be held every year and hosted by different countries in Asia. The 10th PENSA Congress will be held in Pattaya, Thailand during the October 27-29, 2004. I am very delighted to invite everyone to join this exciting and informative meeting and have a good time in Thailand.
We look forward to seeing you in Pattaya, Thailand.
