June 2006: First Vice Regent for Slovenia
Dr Ljubo Marion was elected Deputy Regent for Slovenia at the 2006 Annual Meeting in Genoa. As yet, Slovenia does not have a District of its own so Slovenian Fellows will be looked after by their own Deputy Regent through the Greek Regent and District. Then in time, as the numbers of Fellows in Slovenia grows, it is hoped that an autonomous Slovenian District will be established.
New Fellowsfrom Hungary and Croatia
The Greece and Cypurs District is also introducing new Fellows from Hungary, and Croatia during this time when the Eurpean Section of ICD is endeavouring to expand its fellowship into Eastern Europe, and is particularly pleased to welcome two new Fellows tin 2007, Dr. Gerloczy from Hungary and Dr. Slaj from Croatia as above.
