| 3570.1 | GIA is gone | LACV01::ROMANO | Don Romano - LACT IM&T | Tue Dec 13 1994 12:53 | 13 |
| GIA was divided between APA and the Americas Area.
Canada and the Latin American/Caribbean Territory (LACT) joined the United
States in the Americas Area.
APA stands for Asian/Pacific Area (I think) and is composed of Japan,
Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the countries in the Far East.
The other area is Europe.
Me thinks this is close. :-)

| 3570.2 | just AP? | MKOTS1::RYAN | | Tue Dec 13 1994 13:52 | 8 |
| Is the current version just AP (for Asia/Pacific)?
I thought the last A (area) was dropped.
When we all figure it out and start using it correctly - it will change
again.

| 3570.3 | What's in AP | JUMP4::JOY | Perception is reality | Tue Dec 13 1994 14:34 | 10 |
| I work in AP (Asia/Pacific). As far as I know the last "A" was dropped
at the end of FY94 when the Canada and Latin America went to join the
US in the Americas.
AP includes Japan, the Chinas(PRC, Taiwan, Hong Kong), Singapore, India,
Pakistan, VietNam, Malyasia, the Phillipines, Thailand, Indonesia,
Korea, Fiji, Australia and New Zealand.

| 3570.4 | You say AP, I say APA.. | AKOCOA::DOUGAN | | Tue Dec 13 1994 18:15 | 35 |
| Seems to be some discussion about AP vs. APA. I've seen both. APA =
Asia/pacific area.
The structure is as follows:
6 territories:
1. Japan
2. South Pacific = Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Papua/New Guinea and
various Pacific Island nations. Sometimes abbreviated as SPT or SPR
(South pacific region).
3. Korea
4. The Chinas, or greater China = China (PRC), Taiwan, Hong Kong
5. India
6. ASEAN (Association of SE Asian nations) = Singapore, Phillipines,
Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam. ASEAN management also looks after the
Country development group which has responsibility for those countries
where we have no direct presence - Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Brunei,
Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia etc.
What's out? Afgahnistan belongs to Europe, Pakistan is in AP. Russia
is in Europe despite the fact that it sticks way into the Pacific.
Mongolia (?) The US trust territories in the Pacific (Guam, Truk,
Kwajalein etc.) are serviced out of Hawaii. The French Pacific islands
belong to Europe, but in reality there is little business and some
support comes from New Zealand. Antarctica depends on the country that
has bases there. There's an opening for a keen branch manager who
enjoys winter sports ;-)

| 3570.5 | | PCBUOA::LEFEBVRE | PCBU Asia/Pacific Marketing | Tue Dec 13 1994 18:46 | 3 |
| For the PCBU there are only 3 territories in AP: Japan, Asia and SPT.

| 3570.6 | When is an AP an APA or a GIA? Confused? I am! | SNOFS1::GEORGE | It's Groundhog Day... again! | Tue Dec 13 1994 19:56 | 17 |
| However...
even though Canada and LACT have joined with U.S. to become
"The Americas", they still run the original APA (or GIA)
internal systems. So the support structure for systems
such as Call Handling, Logistics, etc is still under the
old Area.
I tend to agree with .5, that AP consists of Asia, Japan, and
SPT, and therefore the countries within, except Japan, which
doesn't contain any other countries :-)
Maybe Axel (.4) has been away from the Australia sun too long?
Too many New England winters since you left Oz? :-)

| 3570.7 | You're all right | JUMP4::JOY | Perception is reality | Tue Dec 13 1994 20:03 | 10 |
| re:.4-6 Axel has been here for quite a few New England winters ;*), but
I don't think that's his problem... He's actually just being a bit
premature in breaking out the Asia "districts". The plan is to move
into those separate districts internally to Asia. Most likely from a
Corporate standpoint (and reporting standpoint) Asia will continue to
be treated as a whole, with the individual "districts" rolling up into
1 Asia number.

| 3570.8 | Can't even spell restore | AKOCOA::DOUGAN | | Tue Dec 13 1994 20:24 | 11 |
| Whoops, did I pre-announce something?
But seriously there are (will be?) 6 "operational" territories for SBU
and ABU. The numbers reporting into corporate will probably be via 3
numbers (Japan, SP, Asia). I think we're all in violent agreement.
And yes, I could do with a bit of diving off the Whitsundays to retore
sanity.
