The organizing committee would like to bid all delegates to 28th Asian Pacific Conference of Correctional Administrators a very warm welcome to Malaysia and to the island of Langkawi in particular. | | History and Traditions of APCCA | | The first APCCA meeting was held in Hong Kong in 1980, and developed from discussions between the then Director of the Australian Institute of Criminology and the then Commissioner of the Hong Kong Prison Service. Since 1980, the conference has met every year apart from 1990. From 1980 to 1992, the conference was assisted by the Australian Institute of Criminology and from 1993 to 2002 by Professor David Biles. During 2001-2002, APCCA established a permanent Secretariat and responsibilities have been jointly shared by Hong Kong (China) and Singapore. | | Read more... | | Statement of APCCA Traditions | The conference participants are correctional administrators, that is officials responsible for the administration of prison and other correctional systems.
