Dear IADS Family

Time has passed so quickly that the 56^th IADS&YDW annual meeting that took place in the amazing city of Iasi-Romania is already over.

 As we go back to our normal lives, we can not help but remember the past week with a big smile on the face and a bit of a tingle in the heart, it was the week where we reunited with our family and got to know our new members that automatically engrave their names as life long friends in our hearts.
 I have to acknowledge my deep gratitude to the Congress Committee of Romania under the chairmanship of Ionut Luchian for an amazing job that showed how hard they have been working to exceed our expectations and organize such a unique perfectly planned and executed meeting.

 I would like to thank my friends at the executive committee of the year 2008/09 for an unforgettable year of hard work and perseverance that paid of in a lot of accomplishments that made us all proud.

 Also I want to thank you all for trusting me in the Secretary General position for this year and I know that Magda has left me a huge gap that I will try as hard as possible to fill, as she has been doing an extraordinary job for the past 2 years.

 I would also like to welcome our new members and wishing them a joyful ride with the IADS.

Also I would like to wish the new elected executive committee for our fellow association the Young Dentists Worldwide-YDW- all the best for the next year and it was a great pleasure seeing you this year.
At the end I want to say that I am missing each and every one from the meeting like crazy, the 411 guys and the peaceful authentic city of Iasi.

Have a great time and till we meet again in Ohrid Macedonia for the Mid Year Meeting 2010.

Hugs from Egypt!
