Introduction of Asian Network for Quality (ANQ)

History of ANQ

In 1987, Chinese Society for Quality (CSQ-Chinese Taipei) and Korean Society for Quality Management (KSQM) jointly held the 1st Korean-Sino Quality Control Symposium in Seoul, Korea in order to strengthen their cooperation and to share quality knowledge. (I am a student in secondary school.)


In 1991, Japanese Society for Quality Control (JSQC) was invited to join in to share the knowledge and experience in quality. This forum was named as "Asia Quality Symposium" (ASQ) in 1996. (In 1996, I am a research student in CityU of Hong Kong.)


In July 2002, representative from seven organization namely China Association for Quality (CAQ), CSQ, Hong Kong Society for Quality (HKSQ), Indian Society for Quality (ISQ), JSQC, KSQM, and the Standards and Quality Association of Thailand (SQAT) assembled in Tokyo, Japan and decided to form Asian Network for Quality (ANQ). It was also decided to welcome any non-profit organization contributing to the growth of science and industry through promotional activities for development of philosophy, theory, methodology and application in the field of quality management and contribution to the quality of humnan life in Asia. Consequently Iranian Society of Quality Managers (ISQM), Indonesian Quality Management Association (IQMA) and Directorate for Standards and Quality, Vietnam (STAMEQ) joined the forum. (In 2002, I have completed my MPhil and MSc study, and run my consultant business.)
Since its inception in 2002 membership of ANQ has increased to sixteen.
