The ASTW is an important event of the ASEAN COST and it is conducted triennially in a rotational basis amongst ASEAN Member Countries, which has the main purpose of promoting of S&T Development in Southeast Asian Countries. In addition, it is expected that this event will open windows of opportunities for scientist, technologies, researchers, academicians, government officials, practitioners and private sectors, to interact and to promote networking, as well as to expand their S&T cooperation. In an effort to promote the interfacing of the private sector and the ASEAN S&T community, Member Countries are advised to bring their private sectors to show case one or two of their products during the ASTW. With a theme of “innovations from the most dynamic region to earth”, the 9th ASTW will be celebrated in conjunction with the 19th National Awakening Technology Days (Hakteknas) of the Republic of Indonesia in the period of August 2014, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. 5 3 Bogor West Java 1 Beautiful landscape of 4 Megamendung motif - identical Puncak Bogor. and icon batik artwork from Cirebon, West Java. 2 The Bogor Palace (Indonesian:Istana Bogor) - 5 Wayang Golek - wooden doll one of 6 Presidential puppets that are operated from Palaces in Indonesia. below by rods connected to the hands and a central control rod 3 The angklung - a musical that runs through the body to instrument made of two the head. bamboo tubes attached to a bamboo frame. 6 Great panoramic of tea garden.
