The Ministry of
Trade is hosting the largest trade show of Indonesia - the 29th Trade Expo
Indonesia (TEI), from 8th – 12th October later this year.
The international exhibition is to be held in the Jakarta International Expo
(JIExpo), with a ‘Towards Green Business’ theme.
This
theme follows President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono at the 2nd ASEAN
Summit which took place last 19th June at Nadi, Fiji Islands, as a
statement was made referring that the green economy is significant for
Indonesia’s resilience. Green economy has become a new economic paradigm, promoting
economic progress without harming natural wealth and resources.
TEI
2014 will be hosted in an area covering 40,000m2, expecting 2,000
exhibitors targeting an audience of 10,000 people. The products to be on show will
include main export commodities, prospective exports commodity, as well as
other export products. This is as well as products and services from
well-trained labour, including professional, hospitality and construction
services.
These
products will highlight the continuity of the company in operating a green
business, made with focus towards social environment aspects and so products do
not just meet the standards of aesthetics and function. Another key factor to
be considered is fair trade. This aspect, amongst others, is shown by fairness
to all interested and Indonesian businessmen’s ability to meet fair trade’s international
standards.
