5. 5. Scientific ProgramScientific Program During the selection process, we had solicited opinions from members of the Scientific Program Committee regarding many issues such as the selection of parallel session conveners, plenary session talks, and time allocation to the sessions and the plenary talks. In general, there had been very good input, but in many cases replies came too slow.
Topics for plenary sessions had been selected on the basis of the most recent developments in the field with some considerations given to regional balance. The responsibilities for selecting topics for parallel sessions had been largely given to the session conveners who had full authority in organizing topics in his/her session. Details are as below:

6. 6. FinanceFinance
The conference should have more income, and the
relatively larger expenditure was mainly due to
1) Number of people showing up was much less than
expected, and yet most contracts had been signed on the
basis of 900 or 1000 people, proceedings and the
banquet for instance,
2) We had supported too many local students and
participants from poor local institutions.
7. Proceedings7. Proceedings
Proceedings (two volume
s) were contracted to WSP,
Singapore and are now
ready and are being
distributed.
8. Summary8. Summary The conference had been very successful in that it had been carried out in full conformity with the IUPAP values and principles, through the conference scientific ideas had been exchanged among the participants, friendship and cooperation had been strengthened.
Hereby I would like to be on behalf of the host institution to express my thanks to all the sponsors and everybody here who made it available for us to host ICHEP’04.
