batch program to run more than one program

[alps]

Hello,
I want to run a set of programs, so instead of running them by one one, I tried to create a batch file as below. But once it runs the first program, it stops and doesn't continue on the others.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

run forecasting_aus
run forecasting_bra
run forecasting_can
run forecasting_chl
run forecasting_ind
run forecasting_kor

Use exec rather than run.
