Japan Radio Astronomy Forum and Nobeyama Radio Observatory held a two-day joint symposium for SKA project on February 1 and 2. SKA is a project targeting frequency bands lower than those of ALMA. At the symposium, participants discussed a wide range of issues such as its scientific goals and relations with future projects for other frequency bands including ALMA.
