This should obviously have been set up earlier. Your tasks are to work with the Secretary to establish list of open issues, create an agenda for the meeting, invite participants, chair the meeting, and see that what has been decided is recorded and, later, acted out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<p>AFNLP Exec Meeting 2<br \/>\nOrganize the AFNLP Executive meeting at the IJCNLP conference the year of your presidency. Your duties are as for the previous meeting, but the meeting now includes additional people, notably the Local Arrangements Committee and Conference Chairs, who are invited to attend for a portion of the meeting and give their reports. At this time, also set a time for the next AFNLP Exec meeting in the following year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">AFNLP Business Meeting<br \/>\nChair the AFNLP Business Meeting at the IJCNLP conference.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"justify\">Notes and comments<\/p>\n<div align=\"justify\">In general, the president&#8217;s position is something of a balancing act, between taking care of smallish issues (and getting them resolved and recorded) and thinking about the longer-term goals and directions of the Association. Now that you become president after two years of serving as VP on the Exec, you will have had time to absorb the issues and decide whether you want to focus on one or the other (generally, people don&#8217;t seem to have had time for both).<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Duties of Vice President<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Written by Key-Sun Choi on 2008\/09\/15; modified by Keh-Yih Su on 2012\/06\/30<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\" type=\"1\">\n<li>To promote the profile of AFNLP in the Asian region and in the international community<\/li>\n<li>To oversee the SIG activities<\/li>\n<li>To be the CCC chair (please see associated duties under CCC category)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Duties of General Secretary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Written by Keh-Yih Su on 2008\/09\/15<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Administer and oversee the AFNLP election (*recommendation is made by NCAC).<\/li>\n<li>Maintain and update AFNLP policies and procedures.<\/li>\n<li>Maintain AFNLP constitution<\/li>\n<li>Record minutes at Executive meeting and Board Meeting held at IJCNLP (every two years)<\/li>\n<li>Set up agendas for the executive and the board meetings<\/li>\n<li>Arrange with local organizers to organize various meetings at the IJCNLP conference<\/li>\n<li>Interact with officers to remind them of tasks to be done.<\/li>\n<li>Check and Review AFNLP Executives Yearly Progress in each year.<\/li>\n<li>Handle AFNLP correspondence.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Duties of AFNLP treasurer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Written by Kam-Fai Wong on 2008\/09\/15<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<p>Book keeping of AFNLP account.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<p>Main income of AFNLP comes from IJCLP.
