<strong>The</strong> linguistic and demographic variety <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>INCLEN</strong>-Asia was acknowledged as a challenge<br />
and an opportunity. Foundation for <strong>the</strong><br />
Advancement <strong>of</strong> Clinical Epidemiology Inc.<br />
(FACE Inc.) is a registered not-for-pr<strong>of</strong>it<br />
organization that looks after fund<br />
management, financial statement<br />
maintenance, auditing and book-keeping for<br />
<strong>INCLEN</strong>-Asia. On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand, if <strong>INCLEN</strong>-<br />
Asia had tried to register in ano<strong>the</strong>r member<br />
country, it could have been a tedious and<br />
expensive task. Thus FACE could be <strong>the</strong><br />
registered organization for <strong>the</strong> <strong>INCLEN</strong>-Asia<br />
network.<br />
