Preamble
In this Digital Age, one will wonder why
Exhibitions and Trade fairs are still relevant when one can in one’s lounge,
office, home or bed get the information and products online at anytime.
In Malaysia in the year 2000, there are
only 3,700,000 internet users and by the end of 2015 there are already
21,090,777 internet users. As far as the world is concerned, there are now
3.5 billion users as compared to 361
million in the year 2000. Over 15 years there is an increase of about 888
percent.
But Exhibitions and Trade Fairs are
still important because here people can see and touch the products, creations
and inventions personally and also at the same time have personal communication
with the sellers. It is also a golden opportunity for manufacturers to asses
their
Competitors and to look out for the
latest products.
We would like to take this opportunity
to thank The China Foreign Trade Center and also the Ministry of Commerce, the
Peoples Republic of China and their associates and counterparts for inviting us
to participate in such a momentous event.
Thank you to ES Events for organizing
the briefing and also MATRADE for supporting this Trade Fair.
