I am Vice President of FAPA and a member of Award Committee in FAPA. I am also Head of Welfare Foundation and Director of the Korean Pharmaceutical Association (KPA).

I have worked in the pharma industry – Aventis Korea and IMS Health Korea as GM for more than 30 years. Based on my working experience, I can contribute to expand FAPA members more and improve the financial status of FAPA through the fund raising and donations by pharmaceutical companies.

My assigned countries and Section in FAPA are Korea/Australia and Scientific Section/ Administrative, Social Pharmacy and Ethics Section. Therefore, I will also supporting KPA and Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) for better communication and collaboration with FAPA.

I will also assist Administrative, Social Pharmacy and Ethics Section and Scientific Section of FAPA to arrange the better programs during FAPA Congress and exchange the relevant information among FAPA member countries.

[FAPA Bureau Write-Up Series]:
Since FAPA’s expending its exposure and influence in Asia, we need our Bureau members to be outstanding and advocate for what they really would like to make FAPA different and bring people to be more aware of us as an international leading organization in pharmacy.  In these serveries, we’ve kindly request our Bureau Members (including President, Vice Presidents, and the Secretary General) to provide 100~200 write-up and also a short film (<3minutes) to introduce their efforts which have been done or plan to be done for us in FAPA; and it is always good to hear of their vision and planning for the development of pharmacy and pharmaceutical science, for us in Asia and the world.
