Abstract

The year 1963 marked a very special time in the Federation’s history. PSEM, then in its second year of existence, hosted the 3rd Asia-Oceania Congress of Endocrinology in Manila, where about 200 participants from 11 countries gathered. It was in this meeting that the idea of a Federation of Endocrine Societies in the Region was adopted.1
