IARU Region 3 Directors Meeting (Sep 2017)
Directors of the IARU region that covers the Asia-Pacific met at the JARL Headquarters in Tokyo on 4-5 September to discuss a range of matters and review annual reports.
They were Professor Rhee HL1AQQ, Peter VK3MV, Don ZL2TLL, Wisnu YB0AZ, Shizuo JE1MUI, and Chairman Gopal VU2GMN, with Secretary Ken Yamamoto JA1CJP, joined by Tim Ellam VE6SH the IARU President.
In a news release the meeting reviewed next year’s 17th IARU Region 3 Conference to be attended by Member Societies in Seoul Korea.
The Directors decided that in keeping with the focus of promoting Amateur Radio to young persons, the theme for the Conference would be “Engaging Youth for the future of Amateur Radio”.
The ITU World Radiocommunications Conference or WRC-19 agenda matters of interest to the amateur service and amateur satellite service were discussed.
Already IARU Region 3 Directors Shizuo JE1MUI and Wisnu YB0AZ had been at the Asia Pacific Preparatory meeting in Bali, Indonesia in July, and made presentations on behalf of IARU.
Reactivation of Amateur Radio in Fiji and the other Pacific islands is still of interest with a potential development soon.
The reformatting of Region 3 Band Plans has been done, and after comments from Member Societies and the other IARU Regions, the final Band Plan document will be put for adoption at the Region 3 Conference around September 2018.
