<p>The 26th Session of APPPC held in India in September 2009 agreed that Malaysia lead a working group on South American Leaf Blight (SALB) to prepare a draft programme for the publication of reference materials. As a result, the workshop to develop the training programme and reference materials for protection against SAL B was held in Malaysia in November 2011. At the 27th Session held in Philippines in August 2011, the SALB working group proposed two other follow-up activities, one of which is the Workshop on Training of Trainers on Protection against South American Leaf Blight (SALB) in the Asia-Pacific Region to be held in Penang, Malaysia, from 2-6 July 2012. The overall objective of the workshop is to enhance the capacity building on the protection of SALB. The workshop has produced a core group of competent trainers on SALB and protection of SALB in the region. On return to their respective country, they are expected to train the local personnel according to their proposed training programme. The trainers are also expected to use the training materials received from the workshop to develop training materials in their local language to train or disseminate information on protection SALB in their country.</p>
