Embassy of Japan in China

Abstract

It is a great pleasure to extend this greeting in holding of "The 8th International Biophilia Rehabilitation Conference" on behalf of the Embassy of Japan in China. The needs for rehabilitation are growing with the increase in elderly people and services of them in both of our great countries. It is very meaningful that the experiences within this field in Japan and China are introduced mutually through the presentations of the research results and opinion exchanges about the functional recovery of advanced-age disabled persons, such as bedridden elderly, are performed in this conference. It encourages and activates the exchange of people who are engaged in the functional recovery of elderly and disabled individuals in both countries. It is my sincerest desire to increase a cooperative and productive relationship in this field between our two great nations in the future starting with the success of this conference.
