来賓からのメッセージ：Message to Geological Society of Japan

It was a special honor to visit the Annual Meeting of the Geological Society of Japan (JGS) representing the IUGS and the Mongolian Geological Society. Last year the Agreement between two Societies signed, and it was the first visit of the MGS representative. JGS is a very old member of the IUGS, jointing a great number of Japanese geologists, and has pride in its achievement and contribution to the development of the international geological community.
My visit was extremely important for the future development of the MGS. This has provided me with a chance to learn first-hand about many of the important activities in which JGS is involved. Thanks to the work of all committees under the council leadership and outstanding staff the JGS is in very good shape. I learned a lot, and I and the MGS will share the knowledge and experience of JGS, and our cooperation will extend.
The Annual Meeting I attended offers an opportunity for participants to share their researches in the form of oral talk and posters, and also includes discussion on many topics. I am very glad that many topics and interesting results related to Mongolian Geology presented and discussed, and our young researchers studying Master and PhD courses in Japan attended this meeting.
MGS is planning to continue our cooperation with the JGS in many research topics, and large world programs like Geopark, YES to extend and improve scientific training, to establish important contacts to facilitate scientific exchange and collaboration.

Ochir Gerel,
Executive Committee of the Mongolian Geological Society
