In my opinion, IFLA is an exceptional organization, distinctive in our mission of uniting the library field to be able to act upon librarians’ needs to develop professionally and people’s needs to access information. We help information professionals build up the competencies they need to make a positive impact on the information environment and redefine our values. So this was my answer: the IFLA Congress is the annual meal I need to strengthen my belonging to the biggest library community in the world. These conferences are key to my lifelong learning. They provide me with the knowledge, guidance and inspiration I require to be an updated librarian who really contributes to people’s sustainable development. Today, as the IFLA President, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 84th IFLA General Conference and Assembly. I would like to thank you in advance for your contribution. I would also like to thank the Malaysian National Committee for the theme Transforming Libraries, Transforming Societies. It is very well connected with our current IFLA goals and work. As you may already know, IFLA is going through a profound transformation and is facilitating a global conversation in order to define a global vision for libraries which clearly spells out the future role and relevance of libraries. IFLA is all of us. IFLA needs to hear all of our voices. We all need to bring in our ideas to create a global library Ideas Store which can inform the shaping of our future. I am looking forward to strengthening our collaborative work for a strong united library field. Our current global conversation involves the IFLA Professional Units - the biggest pool of library experts in the world. A large number of professionals from the seven continents across all types of libraries are having a dialogue through a very well-structured methodology, which allows us to capture the most essential ideas to seize opportunities and face global challenges. I am very proud and honored to lead IFLA together with the IFLA Secretary General, the President- elect and the members of IFLA Governing Board at this exceptional time when IFLA is developing its new strategy. I am counting on all of you more than ever. 6 IFLA World Library and Information Congress 2018 24—30 August 2018 | Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Welcome from the IFLA President IFLA is also about meeting colleagues and making friends, while we enjoy the hospitality and beauty of our congress city.

The advantages of laparoscopic surgery over open surgery have already been proven. Since the first documented laparoscopic cholecystectomy by Proffesor Muhe in 1985, over the years, it has become the gold standard for cholecystectomy. The advantages of laparoscopic surgery have been questioned recently due to reports of some complications inherent to the approach. These complications may be due to: Induction of pneumoperitoneum; insertion of trocars; use of thermal instruments and; lack of experience and expertise. Complications like bowel perforation and vascular injury may not be recognized intraoperatively and are the main cause of procedure specific morbidity and mortality related to laparoscopic surgery.

Tanjung Pura, formerly was the capital of Malay Sultanate of Langkat, had various cultural heritages of Malay Sultanate and Dutch colonial. The diversity of cultural heritage objects in Tanjung Pura such as the historical buildings possess great potential as tourism assets in Tanjung Pura. Therefore, the conservation efforts are very much needed to avoid the old town Tanjung Pura from becoming only as a history. The special target of this research is the conservation of the region in Tanjung Pura as an architectural and cultural tourism asset. The results of the research are the design concept, conservation concept, design of the area, and documentation (such as photos and pictures of the historical buildings) using a design program. The result of the measurements and sketches in the area obtained using the design program, analysis and design concepts for the area will be used as a tourist object attraction. Keywords: City of Tanjung Pura, Conservation, Tourism Architecture. 1. INTRODUCTION Issues about the conservation of historical areas, especially in the old town have been done by many countries in this world such as Japan, Netherland, Singapore, and others. For example, in the beginning, Singapore had replaced buildings and historical areas with new appearance of modernization. However, the small number of tourists that come to Singapore made the government return back the historical city’s look such as Kampung Melayu, Little India, and China Town.
