The meeting was opened by AUSF President Mr Yanqing Xue who welcomed all the participants in his address and expressed appreciation to all the hosts, members, participants and other stakeholders for their understanding in the postponement of cancellation of the onsite events in Asia in 2022.

AUSF Secretary General Mr Kenny Chow highlighted in the annual report the efforts made by the Executive Committee members and staff to follow up with initiatives of 30th anniversary of AUSF, including publication of the book "30 Years Asian University Sports Movement", diversified activities celebrating the International Day of University Sport (IDUS) and other events.



The President of the European University Sports Association (EUSA) Mr Roczek greeted the participants, reflecting on the good cooperation between EUSA and AUSF, extending his best wishes on behalf of the sister continental university sports body, with the hope to be able to meet in person soon.
