Dear Lai

You may like to visit these links below that will give you complete picture of FIT Congress in Shanghai which was a great success. As a representative of Indian Translators Association I did participate in this congress, and learnt a lot about China in particular and Translation world in general. This congress gave me an opportunity to interact with representatives of translators associations of the world, which further enriched my knowledge especially about various translation standards and technology know how. For Indian Translators Association it was more special as our association was voted to become regular member of FIT, the first ever Indian translators Association to join FIT. More interestingly we were voted to be on board of FIT Council as well, yet another gift. I also had an opportunity to interact with Mr. Henry Liu, President of the New Zealand Society of Translators and Interpreters (NZSTI) who explained to me in detail about activities of NZSTI and translation activities in New Zealand. Hope to interact with him in future as well to develop close relationship between translators community of India and New Zealand.
