IFPRA 2005 - Asia Pacific Congress

The IFPRA 2005 Asia Pacific Congress was a platform to share thoughts and ideas, research and findings in "Creating A Lifestyle" for the New Living. Stepping into the new millennium marks the start of a new lifestyle where Human, Technology & Innovation co-exist and live in symbiosis. In our daily lives, we can all do more to reduce our use of the planet's resources and the damage we do to our environment.
