BANGKOK: -- The Department of International Trade Promotion is hosting the 10th Thailand International Education Expo from February 22-24 to promote the country's credentials as an education destination.

Srirat Rastapana, director-general of the department, said last week that TIEE 2013, in cooperation with 200 international education institutions and service providers, will present the benefits of Thailand going into the international education industry.

The event will highlight Thailand's strategic location in the trade and investment heart of the region, as well as its modern facilities and infrastructure, world famous hospitality, friendly environment and reasonable cost of living.

Some 27 per cent more exhibitors have booked booths at the venue - the Royal Paragon Hall at the Siam Paragon shopping mall.

They come from China, America, India, Germany, Russia, Austria and Japan. Over 10,000 visitors from Thailand and other countries are expected.

Under the theme "Live & Learn in Wonderful Thailand", the country will be portrayed as a great international education country, with the grandest array of international education in the Asean region.

Participants can enjoy gathering in-depth information and seeking professional advice on a comprehensive range of international curricula directly from specialists. They may enjoy shopping for study aids such as software, games and toys as well as educational services.

umpfff - we have a daughter presently studying in one of the "BKK universities" and I am now not going to be mad again over their

school system (nothing to do with varsity environment), the "Thainess" of corruption in that joint, the quality of lecturers (local

and foreign alike) etc.

Not very convincing without the "H" word.

promote promote ... on the world scale of education, what was the Thai's children score again ?

how many Nobel prize winners ever came from Thailand ?

Unbelievable! And my son was told by his teacher ist is good to eat fish because then you will be able to swim too!

Imbecilic!

I like this event. Most of the best universities in Thailand will be there and it's a good opportunity to compare universities. It's not just for universities, there will also be 40 or 50 secondary schools there. Parents looking for a school for the international children have a great opportunity to talk with many of the schools in one location.
