16th World Congress of Rehabilitation International

The 16th World Congress of Rehabilitation International was held in Tokyo from 5th to 9th September 1988.In all of the sixty years intervening between this and the 1st World Congress - at Geneva,Switzerland in 1929 - this is the first time that the World Congress has been held in Asia. Many Asian and Pacific countries had long wished for this to occur,and finally our hopes have been realized.Therefore,"the promotion of disability prevention and rehabilitation of disability in Asian and other developing countries" was a particularly relevant theme throughout the 16th World Congress. Consequently,we were greatly pleased that we could accordingly be hosts to the largest number of participants from developing countries,including those from Asia and the Pacific countries. This gave us the greatest pleasure.
