Dear colleagues,
Within ICOM-ASPAC the member countries do not have any confusion about where
to belong. Only concerns are Pacific region is not well represented in
ASPAC, since there are very few national committees from that specific
area. Nevertherless, PIMA is very active and it is an affiliated
organization in ICOM. I understand ICOM-Russia do not join the activities
in ASPAC which should be respected as indicated in the model rule of RO.
And also if we follow the definition of the regions of UNESCO(if I remember
correctly) USA belongs to Europe even though it is located at the
north-eastern part of the Pacific.
Since RO has been already changed to Regional Alliences, we can focus more
on collaboration with specific goals within the region(or sub-regions if
needed) than deviding fine lines between the States based on geographical
boundaries.
As Prof. Boylan mentioned that these boundaries are not only based on
geographical areas, but also on cultural and historical contexts.
