On Tuesday 12 April 2022 we called for candidates to stand for election for both the Chapter Chairperson, the Deputy Chapter Chairperson, as well as the Deputy Chapter Chairperson/Treasurer, regarding the ICCA Asia Pacific Chapter Elections.
- For the position of Deputy Chairperson came forward Mr. Eric Abramson.
- For the position of Deputy Chairperson/Treasurer came forward Dr. Keiko Nishimoto.
Since no other candidates came forward for both the Deputy Chairperson position as well as the Deputy Chairperson/Treasurer position, Mr. Eric Abramson and Dr. Keiko Nishimoto are automatically (re)elected.
Note: Although Dr. Keiko Nishimoto did already serve for three terms, she currently represents Ritsumeikan University Graduate School of Management, another ICCA Member.Therefore she was again eligible for elections. Under those conditions this will be her first term as Deputy Chairperson/Treasurer.
