wire and Tube Southeast ASIA, the international wire, cable, tube and pipe
trade fairs, will open in Bangkok on 13 October 2009 at what could prove to
be the cusp of resurgence in manufacturing and investment in Thailand.
More than 300 exhibiting companies including national groups from Austria,
China, France, Germany, Italy, Taiwan, United Kingdom and USA are expected
to enhance and enforce their positioning in Southeast Asia at wire and Tube
Southeast ASIA.
Both trade fairs return to Bangkok at a time when capital investment is
expected to start gathering pace as a consequence of a second infrastructure-
focused Thai government. The last wire and Tube Southeast ASIA held in 2007
welcomed over 7,000 visitors during the three day event from approximately
60 countries. The organisers, Messe Düsseldorf ASIA, are expecting this to
increase to well over 8,000 visitors for the 2009 staging.
