Australian and NZ College of Anaesthetists Annual Scientific Meeting 2011

The theme of our meeting, this year combined with the Hong Kong College of Anaesthesiologists, is “Seeking the Dragon Pearl”. In ancient Chinese folklore, the pearl of the dragon was a symbol of that most valuable and sacred treasure: wisdom. Legend has it that the dragon held a powerful pearl. Pearls were believed to be the tears of the moon in Chinese mythology. Some of the tears were taken up by dragons who watched over them in great submarine palaces. The dragon pearl is said to be the dragon’s most coveted and sacred treasure and is considered an emblem of wisdom.
