ATF showcases best of ASEAN
ATF 2012 TRAVEX will welcome more than 1,400 delegates to Manado’s New Golden Kawanua Exhibition Hall next week.
Pre-TRAVEX registration figures indicate that close to 1,000 exhibitors and 390 buyers will fill the exhibition venue during the event.
The exhibitor delegation will feature some 438 booths represented by 390 companies and properties across the 10 ASEAN countries.
Host country Indonesia and Thailand form the two largest national contingents with 112 and 92 exhibition booths respectively. Corporate exhibitors are also participating in a big way with some 65 exhibition booths.
Destination ASEAN’s growing reach and popularity is evidenced by buyer participation from four new countries this year: Bulgaria, Egypt, Kuwait and New Zealand.
Asia-Pacific has almost half of the total buyers with another 37.6 percent representing Europe.
The theme of the ASEAN Tourism Conference on January 13 will be, ‘ASEAN Goes Green’. Keynote speaker will be Taleb D. Rifai, secretary general of UNWTO.
