Thanks to everyone who competed, read questions, kept score, and assisted with logistics throughout the weekend! We hope to see many students from Asia once again this summer at the second International History Olympiad in Honolulu, Hawaii on 17-24 July, 2016! Almost everyone who competed at the IHBB Asisn Championships has already qualified, but check with us to make sure. Good luck there, and thanks again for coming to Khao Lak for the 2016 IHBB Asian Championships!
