Instructions for Registering for the Singapore conference:
All registrations for the special international conference being convened by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy
(National University of Singapore) and the University of Maryland School of Public Policy will be made through the
Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management beginning on or about 8 September 2008. The link to the registration
form is at the bottom of this page. Please read the following carefully before initiating a registration.
- This system is for registration for the 2009 Singapore conference only. Through 3 October 2008 APPAM also is accepting
registration for its 2008 Fall Research Conference. These two registrations are entirely separate and please be sure
you are registering for the correct conference.
- All registrations paid by credit card (MasterCard, Visa, American Express) must be completed online and
using a secure credit card portal operated
by USA ePay, an affiliate of Network Solutions Merchant Services. Payment also may be made by check or wire
transfer per instructions on the registration form. When you complete
the registration process the system will provide you with a reference ID. That ID along with the email address
submitted during registration will be required to access registration information. USA ePay will never email a
request to verify payment information. Anyone receiving such a request at any time, should not respond but forward
the request to the APPAM office.
- A receipt for payment may be printed off of the APPAM website at any time once payment is confirmed. The receipt
system requires both the email address and the registration ID of the person registering.
- APPAM requires that all persons presenting papers at the Singapore conference must
register early for the conference by 15 November 2008. APPAM reserves the right to remove papers from the conference
if the presenters to do not register by that date. Paper presenters
on panels may cancel registration for a refund by 15 November 2008. A $30 fee will be charged for
each cancellation.
- All other persons participating in the conference may register at the early rate by 15 November 2008 and
at the regular rate until 19 December 2008. Such persons may cancel for a refund by
19 December 2008. A $30 fee will be charged for each cancellation. No registrations will be accepted in advance
of the conference after 19 December 2008.
- There are substantial registration discounts for APPAM members. To qualify for the member discount, a membership
must be paid in advance of the conference. To join or renew a membership online (paying by credit card or
check), please go to the "Join APPAM" page under "MEMBERSHIP" or click

when payment is confirmed.
- Persons residing in low income countries in Asia may be eligible for a waiver of the registration fee. The
