The government in Thailand recorded success in controlling the omicron variant with requisite actions in the last month after facing the next wave of COVID-19 pandemic during the new year holiday period. Thailand’s Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) announced following a meeting chaired by Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha that the government has approved several measures including that the fully vaccinated travelers from any country around the world can apply for a Test & Go Thailand Pass 60 days in advance via https://tp.consular.go.th/. There have been slight revisions to the rules, requiring travelers to have proof of their hotel booking on the first and fifth day of their stay in Thailand when they undergo RT-PCR tests. In the original Test & Go program, travelers only had one RT-PCR test on arrival. Tourists are also required to provide certificates of full vaccinations or medical certificates that they have contracted and recovered from COVID-19 when they apply for entry via Thailand Pass.
"This is a significant sign for the exhibition industry that we are waiting for. To bring back the Test & Go entry scheme is a better way to restart the country’s economically vital tourism industry after 18 months of the border closure. The short opening of the Test & Go in November 2021 has already proved to have a positive effect on the tourism towards Thailand. So now it is time to end the waiting and restart business through the powerful platforms of Trade Fairs, the ideal gateway to various industries for this region,” stated Mr. Igor Palka, Managing Director of VNU Asia Pacific".
Encouraged withe these development, VNU Asia Pacific, together with DLG Thai, confirms to organize ‘AGRITECHNICA ASIA & HORTI ASIA’, Asia’s largest agricultural machinery and smart horticulture trade exhibition. It will be held from 25-27 May 2022, at BITEC, Bangkok, Thailand. The show will be filled with 300 companies from 29 countries; 60 conferences and seminars will be presented. The registration will be open soon. Following Q3 of 2022, the livestock - aquaculture industry will be highlighted with fifth exhibitions in different countries. ‘ILDEX Vietnam’ will take place from 3-5 August 2022 at SECC, Ho Chi Minh City, while ‘ILDEX Indonesia’ and ‘Aquatica Asia’ will be from 9-11 November 2022 at ICE, Jakarta, Indonesia. The shows will focus on livestock, dairy, meat processing, and aquaculture businesses. Also the ‘Health & Nutrition Asia’ by VIV will take place from 7-9 September 2022 at IMPACT, Bangkok. The show will focus on the updated sector on the latest animal health, nutrition trends, and services for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture development.
Although the organizer still needs to monitor the COVID-19 situation, it can’t stop VNU Asia Pacific from preparing a powerful exhibition platform for all participants with full security measures and are ready to guide the customers globally on applying for the document and pass the entry process to Bangkok, Thailand.
