Dear All,

It is my great pleasure to inform that Prof. Takashi Fujita,
co-founder of the GIS-IDEAS Conference [1] has been awarded
the "Order of the Sacred Treasure" [2] by the Japanese government
in autumn 2014.

It a very happy coincidence that the award comes in the same
year (2014 ) when the other co-founder Dr. Nghiem Vu Khai was bestowed
with the Order of the "Order of the Rising Sun" [3] by the Japan
Government earlier in 2014.

Hearty Congratulation to Prof. Fujita and Dr. Khai!!

Best

Venka
