| Abstract | The 20th Congress of the International Silk Association, held in Brighton at the end of May 1995, was rated one of the best ever. Altogether 157 delegates - including, for the first time, delegates from Egypt and Cote d'lvoire - and 45 others from 21 countries and from the FAO and some other international bodies were present. This article summerizes the speech delivered by Chen Youzhe, President of the China National Silk Import & Export Corporation and the address by Pierre Schwarzenbach, Chairman of the European Silk Weaving Association. The reports given by Peter Zwicky, the national delegate of Switzerland, Hiroshi Nihei, President of the Japan Silk Association and Surindr Supasavasdebhandu, President of the Thai Silk Association are also included. |
