The President of APSPBI Remarks

Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh 
Good morning, esteemed guests, distinguished speakers, fellow academics, and dear colleagues. 

It is with immense pleasure and a deep sense of honor that I stand before you today to extend the warmest of welcomes to the APSPBI International Conference and Annual Business Meeting 2025. We are gathered here at Bali, Indonesia a hub of innovation and learning for what promises to be a truly insightful and transformative event.

First and foremost, I would like to offer a special welcome to our honored guests, government officials, keynote speakers, invited speakers and all participants. Your presence here is a testament to the importance of this conference and the vital work being undertaken in our field.

I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all the organizers, committee members, and volunteers who have worked tirelessly to make this conference a reality. Your dedication and hard work have not gone unnoticed. The theme of this year's conference, “Transforming English Language Education; Innovation, Inclusion and Impact” is more relevant now than ever. In an increasingly interconnected world, it is through collaboration, the exchange of ideas, and the sharing of best practices that we can collectively address the challenges and seize the opportunities that lie ahead. Over the few days, we will have the privilege of hearing from some of the leading minds in our field, engaging in stimulating discussions, and forging new connections that will shape our future endeavors. 

This conference is not merely a series of presentations; it is a platform for synergy. It is a space where 
knowledge is not just consumed but co-created. I encourage each of you to participate actively, to ask questions, to challenge conventional thinking, and to share your unique perspectives. It is through this active engagement that we can achieve our shared goal of advancing our discipline and making a meaningful impact on society.

Thank you once again for your presence. I hope you find the sessions enriching, the networking fruitful, and your time here truly memorable.

Best Regards 
Ummi Khaerati Syam 
(APSPBI President)
