News this week: The Thailand Convention &
Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) has outbid the likes of South Korea to establish
the headquarters of the Asian Association of
Convention and Visitors Bureaus (AACVB) in Bangkok, effective from 1st
January 2014.
Thailand’s selection was attributed to its excellent
connection for business along with its strong relations to regionals
organisations, including the Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS) and Bay of
Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation
(BIMSTEC).
Nopparat Maythaveekulchai, president of TCEB, said, “The
proposal and judgment were completed in late October. This resulted in the
association office’s relocation to Bangkok, Thailand, from 1 January 2014
onwards, after its 30-year basing in Macau since the day the association was
founded.”
