SARFT opened CCBN 2009

by Nathalie on March 20, 2009

Mr. Zhang Haitao, Vice Minister State Administration of Radio Film and Television (Sarft) announced industry policies and guidelines this morning at The Beijing Exhibition Center Theater - and I was there.

CCBN 2009 Keynote speech

Started the day by testing traffic jam in Beijing which let me plenty of times to discover the city…

When I finally arrived at the Beijing Exhibition Center Theatre, I discovered a highly crowded place (outside), seems like there were too much people (I found the confirmation that there were too many people by translating the ccbn site).

But fortunately, I was able to enter after picking up the simultaneous translation headset.

I was not on the front seat as you can see. I could have read the speech on both sides of the stage but this didn’t really help… me. Hopefully, there was the simultaneous translation.

I will prepare a summary of the important facts mentioned this morning.

I wanted to attend the afternoon sessions which sounded very promising with Cisco, Ericsson, EnRich DTV and Newauto Video Technology, but there was no more translation which was really a surprise. It would have been nice to announce it on the conference web site, or even better, to keep the simultaneous translation - This is a message to the CCBN organization committee.

In the mean time, you can find out more:
