| description | In the far northeast of China, the mighty Songhua river, unusually
devoid of water after an arid summer, ran partially shrouded in mist and
rain, as the first of the 150 or so participants of the 40th International
Conference on Sino-Tibetan Languages and Linguistics arrived to the
Ice City—Harbin, and Heilongjiang University—the venue for the
conference of 2007.1
Chauffeurs and students constituting
“components” of the “organisational apparatus”, headed by Prof. Dai
Zhaoming, had a busy Tuesday meeting participants from nine different
countries and regions, and shuttling them from the airport or train
station to the conference venue, where registration and accommodation
were managed. These tasks were, as far as I understand, carried out
carefully, effectively and to the contentment of most participants. |
