Introduction

○ About 'No Nukes Asia Forum (NNAF)'

A pre-forum of Asian NGOS was held at Yokohama in 1992 before the Earth Summit in Brazil. Then Mr. Kim Wong-Shik, working for the anti-nuclear information center in Korea, proposed to make an anti-nuclear forum in Asia and it was demanded to hold the first conference in Japan.

In compliance with this, finally the executive committee was born with networks of 1354 supporters and approving people and 177 approving organizations.

And then, No Nukes Asia Forum has been held every year with many participants in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia and others. It has developed as a forum to study, discuss and communicate for the Asian people who want to solve various problems about nuclear power.

Another NNAF will be held this year in 2012 in Korea.
