23.01.2022 With careful consideration of reports from leading health organisations, the APGS Board have made the decision to postpone APGC to 13-15 August 2021. The health and safety of our attendees and communities are of utmost importance and it is our view that postponement is the best option. There will be no change to the congress venue and we look forward to working with you to stage a highly successful APGC 2021 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Center in August 2021....
