It aims to provide a great opportunity to share common interests in geo-engineering, construction materials, environmental issues, water resources, and earthquake and tsunami disasters. The conference will be dedicated to those affected by the tragic Tohoku-Kanto earthquake, which occurred on Friday, 11 March 2011, at 14:46 Japan Standard Time, in which the northeast of Japan was severely damaged. The thirteen previous events were held in Pattaya, Thailand; Tsu City, Mie, Japan; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Nagoya, Japan; Brisbane, Australia; Osaka, Japan; Bangkok, Thailand; Mie, Japan; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Tokyo, Japan; Melbourne, Australia; Kyoto, Japan and Bangkok, Thailand. The organizers encourage and welcome your enthusiastic participation and look forward to receiving contributions demonstrating in-depth multidisciplinary technology toward new research and development.
