FINAL WEBSITE ANNOUNCEMENT
Dear AFS members,
Greetings!
Hope this email finds you well.
After some time, our new website is very close to being active. Dr. David and his team are near the end of migrating our content to the new website. This process involves moving content from the staging site to AFS's live server. The time that it will take depends on the new website's size and depending on the server/connection speeds – we have a lot of content over many years to migrate.
Dr. David and his team will instruct the webmaster at the Biosciences Institute of UPM on how to update content, and the new AFS website will be commissioned after this. We will let you know as soon as we hear that the new website is live.
Thanks to all for your contributions of ideas and content to the new website and review of its development, as well as your patience for the time that it has taken to reach this point. Thanks also to Dr. David and his team for the work that they have done in developing and commissioning the new website.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Website Committee(Chair Prof. Neil Loneragan, Prof. Wilfredo Campos, Dr Nur Leena Wong, Prof. Murni Karim, Mrs Malathi Thanamsegaram)
