I was invited by Prof Dr Peter Taylor to join the GaWC (they say as 'Gook') meeting. The meeting will be 7 October 2009 at 1pm. I was so excited that I am a apart of the 'think tank'. There are 10 core peoples in the meeting such as Prof Dr Peter Taylor, Dr Ed Brown, Dr John Harrison, Dr Micheal Hoyler, Dr Heike Jöns and a few others key persons in GaWC. The meeting chaired by Prof Dr Peter Taylor. A few issues have been discussed including their recent seminar in Abu Dhabi...New Ways of Thinking about Abu Dhabi as an Emerging Global City. However other matters I cannot reveal here....secret....I thought I wanted to take a few photos of the members and meeting arrangement but I think its not appropriate at the moment...may be later.
One thing I learned from this meeting..10 items they have discussed but they can managed to finish the meeting within 1 hour...from 1 until 2pm. All members prepared and readied with issues need to be highlighted and what resolution need to be done. Every each of the member give their inputs and ideas...excluding me. I hope I will join next GaWC meeting.
