On 28 October 2010, a ceremony was held during IAF/ILAC 2010 Joint Annual meetings to celebrate the 12^th anniversary of the IAF MLA and the 10^th anniversary of the ILAC MRA. A signing ceremony of newly joined signatories to ILAC MRA and IAF MLA was also held.

 

Madame Wang Fengqing mentioned in her speech that as a full member of international and regional accreditation organizations, China had actively participated in the development of international mutual recognition system. China successively signed all the mutual recognition arrangements in the world and in Asia Pacific region after having been evaluated rigorously time after time by peers as competent. China had benefited a lot after signing the international mutual recognition arrangement. Accredited results of china had been widely recognized and accepted in the world, which set up a platform for certification, testing and inspection results of China to obtain international recognition. Accredited results of CNAS became a condition necessary for import and export trade in some countries and regions.

 

Madame Wang Fengqing also said that China would make further efforts to promote the value of accreditation and IAF/ILAC MLA/MRA to be acknowledged by more people and be accepted in a wider area, and promote accreditation and mutual recognition results to be recognized by more organizations and departments. We would continue to cooperate with international peers to make sustaining effort to realize our goal of ‘Global Acceptance’.
