 "As a host of the next IOF World Congress on Osteoporosis which will be held in Bangkok in 2008, I assure you that we will do our best to make it one of the best congresses ever organized by IOF. I am especially proud and pleased that it will be held in Thailand because it will give many Asian clinicians the opportunity to participate for the first time at this important event."
