The inclusion of the Academy for International Communication of Chinese Culture [AICCC]
may seem at first glance to be somewhat incongruous, but the reality is far from that.
I was one of the first academics to be admitted to the Academic Committee of AICCC, the
reason being that Beijing Normal University recognised that the research findings for
Chinese Export Silver is an excellent vehicle to convey a wide spectrum of information
relating to Chinese cultural history.
The ever-expanding knowledge database that now exists as a result of research into this
hitherto perceived niche silver category has now been recognised as a potential hand
grenade of diverse information that is delivered in a highly interesting context.
AICCC’s global networking, in particular pan-North America through its close association
with the International Data Group [IDG], presents a unique capability to disseminate a vast
array of historical cultural facts in an easily digestible format while retaining the academic
integrity of the work.
World-renowned Professor Huang Huilin, Dean of AICCC and Dr. Austin Luo Jun, Vice
Dean recognise the latent potential at a very early stage of my research. What was initially
regarded as a pioneering move on their part has now been recognised as being totally
logical. The ability to use the research findings as a convenient information communication
vehicle is now regularly presented at academic seminars and conferences.
