Intersec Thailand scheduled for September 15 to 17 2010 at the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre has been rescheduled to 2011 owing to the current political situation in Thailand. A new date for the event will be announced in due course.
The organisers Messe Frankfurt New Era Business Media Ltd and IPEX – International Promotion & Exhibition Co Ltd announced the rescheduling on 27 May 2010 due to the Thailand’s unpredictable circumstances in the coming months.
“Despite Thailand’s ongoing political climate, the show has received a strong response that has seen 80 percent of exhibition space being taken up,” said Mr Stephan Buurma, Managing Director of Messe Frankfurt Asia Holding Ltd. “However, we believe it is best to reschedule the event. We will closely monitor the situation and reschedule the show to a more appropriate date.”
Dr Vallap Kingchansilp, President for the Asian Professional Security Association (APSA) – Thailand Chapter said: “We are very confident about the security market and Intersec Thailand has good potential. The overwhelming response from the exhibitors reflects there is a high demand for security products and services in Thailand and the ASEAN region.” He added that Thailand is by far one of the biggest security and safety markets in the ASEAN region. The total market size for security and safety equipment for 2010 is estimated to reach USD 470 million.
