Li Lingshen, president of CNITA said, “The success of the first edition of the EAGS confirms that our idea to organise a symposium dedicated to geotextiles was a good one. We will assess the opportunity for future activities in this field. We thank our partners and sponsors and look forward to our continued cooperation with EDANA”

Geotextiles will not only be indispensable to implement such a large infrastructure plan, they will also help reduce the environmental impact.” (GK)
