Information for Sponsors and Exhibitors

Due to the Chinese New Year on Thursday, February 3, 2011 many shops and services will be closed one or two days before and/or many days after for holidays. Hence, it is critical that you make sure all shipping items be at the destination by January 31, 2011 or you may run the risk of the item being excluded.

Here are some important items for your immediate consideration.
