The idea to hold a Symposium on Star Forming Regions in Japan, be
fore or after the New Delhi General Assembly of the IAU, originated
in 1981. One of the main reasons was that the 45-m telescope was
expected to be inoperationby 1982. In addition it was considered
that Japan had been very active in the theory of star formation as
well as in mm and IR observations of star forming regions. At the
Patras General Assembly of the IAU the issue was brought up for
discussion at meetings of Commis sions 34 (Interstellar Matter) and
40 (Radioastronomy), the former agreed to sponsor the Symposium,
while the latter agreed to co-sponsore it. The IAU Executive
Committee accepted the proposal to hold the Symposium on September
1983. The Symposium was held in Tokyo on 11-15 November 1985, just
before the New Delhi General Assembly. It was attended by 250
scientists from 18 countries, and 212 papers were presented. The
Scientific Organizing Committee elaborated a superb program of
invited and review presentations. The Conference consisted of oral
and poster sessions. The oral sessions included review papers,
invited papers and a few of the contributed papers; after each
presentation a discussion was held. The poster ses sions included
most of the contributed papers and were very well attended. We
consider that the scientific goals of the meeting were amply
achieved and we express our thanks to all the participants and
specially to the members of the SOC for making them possible."
