Longer, more complex comments:

  • It simply confirmed my opinion that the APCDA is one of the friendliest professional associations that I know of.
  • li>The conference is a cherished tradition. it brings back fond memories. I realised i don’t remember that much about the presentations or the hassle. But the times when we had fun bonding and making friends. everyone is so relaxed and friendly when they are at the conference. It’s a special time-out.
  • Yes, some members' behavior. When I joined a table, the members refused to communicate with me and they were speaking in their native language. They were not friendly.
  • I have sent thousands of messages to various people asking for a meeting. They never cared. Very unfortunately, there were some Officials also in it. I wanted to talk to them regarding some issues, cherish some memories, and so on. But, no response.

What would help you feel connected to APCDA between conferences?
