 JVEC turns into VDF-Tokyo!
(24Sep2004)
JVEC was established in May 2003 in Tokyo. After more than
one year of monthly workshops and networking with Hanoi, we are happy to
upgrade JVEC (informal gathering) into VDF Tokyo (research project). We hope
to integrate research in Japan and Vietnam even more, and strengthen our
financial standing. Activities will be expanded and the web has been renewed (this
site). VDF Tokyo will be managed directly by GRIPS, while VDF Hanoi will
continue to be a joint project between NEU and GRIPS. Though the budgets
remain separate, the two VDFs will do research together.
