CHONBURI (NNT) - Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) has selected Pattaya to host a Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) logistics forum that can showcase Thailand as a hub of modern logistics in ASEAN.

TCEB’s central and eastern regional office Director Salanroj Sutaschuto said the geographical location of Pattaya in Chon Buri is convenient for Mice (meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions) events to promote logistics investment, and to increase investment confidence in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC).

He said Thailand needs to organize international conventions to help draw foreign businesspeople to the EEC, and the GMS logistics forum is a great opportunity.

Mr Salanroj said the GMS logistics forum, scheduled for March 25 at Amari Hotel Pattaya, is a signal Thailand is ready to be a hub for four logistics-related industries: aviation, shipping, rail systems and international land transport.

events to promote logistics

First rule - make roads fit to travel on; Nua/Tai/Suk are all well nigh impassable for traffic.

Rule 2 - improve public transport - taximeters that work.

For a city that you cannot use wheelchairs and pushchairs easily, I would say they are aiming way to high

A cracking night out is essential after a boring work day of presentations and meetings. Why do companies in the US flock to Vegas for conventions and exhibitions?

If I only had a dollar for every news story about the imminent transformation of Pattaya in the last 15 years I would be a rich man...

Another hub rolling down the Klang!
