of the Board of Directors
APMAA Policy for the year 2021 is “Nurturing and Reinforcing APMAA
Sustainability.” In 2021, we aim to achieve the following:
1.
Building more value for our members. APMAA is a “members-first” organization.
As everyone recognizes, our annual conferences are the platform that
brings our members together,
2.
Conducting a “Spring Webinar” (for 2-3 days in next late March) and
“Summer Webinar”, hosted by a regional/country chairs in addition to
the 2021 regular annual conference,
3.
Refining APMAA vision, rules, and guidelines that tell members what
APMAA stands for, how it operates, and why it deserves its business,
and
4.
Sharing administrative tasks (duties) among all Representative
Directors, Senior Directors, and Directors.
APMAA is an academic association supported and runs by the goodwill
of diligent volunteers. In 2021, APMAA renovates its Administration
Team and Regional Chapter system. We introduce four committees,
i.e., Strategy
Committee, Webinar Committee, Collaborative Research Project
Committee, and Membership Committee. This renovation aims to
facilitate the APMAA to change itself into a sustainable
organization that survives and grows over the coming decades.
On November 25, 2020, APMAA completed the APMAA 2020 Webinar Talk
Series “Staying Relevant: Finance and Management Accounting in a
Digital Era” The webinar comprised eight-sessions and started on
October 1, and attracted over 1, 000 audiences in total. The series
was organized by the team of Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM),
Malaysia. The UiTM was supposed to conduct the APMAA 2020 conference
on 1 – 4 Nov 2020. However, the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the
plan. Thank you for the technology. Zoom application provided us an
alternative platform.
In 2020, APMAA obtained the product of its first collaborative
research project initiated at the APMAA 2016 Annual Conference in
Taipei. That is a book entitled "Management Accounting in China and
Southeast Asia - Empirical Studies of Current Practices" (edited by
Dr. Robert C. Rickards, Dr. Rolf Ritsert, and Dr. Kanitsorn
Terdpaopong;
and scheduled to be published
from Springer Nature Switzerland AG in April 2021.
The research project focused on the Stages of Management Accounting
Evolution in the Asia-Pacific Area. Congratulations!
APMAA will celebrate its 20th Anniversary of foundation in 2024.
Let’s develop and introduce more events and projects under the APMAA
flag that are attractive enough to satisfy a variety of demands from
our diversified members across the globe. Our journey to the
20th-anniversary conference has begun already. See all of you at
APMAA 2021 in Jakarta. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay connected.

2020 OFFICIAL SUSPENSION ANNOUNCEMENT
On April 20, APMAA representative directors
were informed that UiTM, the 2020 conference host school,
cannot hold the 2020 conference in November because of the
Malaysian government guideline on
COVID-19 that
restricts mass gatherings in the country in
the next six months and very likely being extended to one
year.
In light of the uncertainty of developments
regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, on April 25, APMAA Board
Members unanimously decided to suspend the APMAA 2020. With
the greatest regret, we are announcing that the APMAA 2020
annual conference in Malaysia will not be held as planned in
November 2020.
We apologize for causing the inconvenience
and disappointment especially to those who are looking
forward to participating in this event and have sent papers
for presentation. For the safety of all delegates and APMAA
families, this might be the best solution at this point.
The APMAA Board has agreed for the Malaysia
team to co-organize APMAA Conference 2021 together with the
Indonesia team which be held in Jakarta. Hope to see all of
you in Jakarta.
Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay connected.
