Here are some memorable impressions the committee received from the speakers and participants:
Many thanks for your wonderful hospitality and congratulations for a superbly organised conference. I found it both enjoyable and stimulating and was able to meet a number of new faces and renew some old friendships. Please pass on my thanks to all the members of the LIA team.
I really enjoyed Bali and I must compliment the organizing committee for doing such a nice job. I’d give them 10 out of 10.
Thanks so much indeed for the great time I had in Bali with all the unforgettable memories: my first trip to Bali was so impressive that it would be the highlight of my traveling up to now!
I have found the conference a great success in every aspect. Academically, I had a chance to learn from well-known and typical presenters from the world and Indonesia. I could also talk to the committee and the participants to share ideas, set up future network and further collaboration.
Culturally, I have learned a lot about your culture with the unique dances and the folklore behind daily life styles. I love the way you organised the conference, making full use of modern techniques and the valuable cultural traces, with the gong to start the conference, and the bamboo bells to signals the sessions. Just wonderful and so Bali!
In terms of organisation, the conference was very well organised in a creative and thoughtful way: the contents were rich and comprehensive, covering different and diversified aspects and perspectives around similar themes. I trust that everyone felt fulfilled, learning new things everyday. The conference started with the well-made speeches and ended with an enthusiastic session which made everyone laugh, encouraged and happy. The balloon session on the beach was another memorable event as well.
The conference was unique in another sense that besides academic activities, there were many others interwoven into the “conference life”. Within a short time, we experienced different cultures, making friends all over the world, having chances to make quality conversations with them… I felt warm, safe, trusted and taken care of all the time.
Well, I could go on and on with you about how I love my Bali trip and how I consider it a best conference of them all.
I want to thank you for the opportunity to present at the LIA conference. I thought the conference was well organized and the participants were wonderful. They were so enthusiastic.
I was great to part of such a useful, professional event.
I wish you and all of your members great success and happiness in your teaching.
A hearty congratulations to you and the LIA team for hosting such a wonderful conference! Your team’s efforts were incredible, the planning and details were all well done. I was so pleased to be able to participate. Thank you again for presenting a conference celebration of LIA at 50.
A very carefully planned and rigorously organised conference.
