煙草在線據《國際煙草雜志》報道編譯　　2014年世界煙草亞洲博覽會的組織者說，該博覽會已經從印尼轉移到新加坡，并將于11月12日至14日如期舉行。

　　今年早些時候，就在Intertabac煙草博覽會和ProTobEx博覽會按計劃在2月份舉行前不久，印尼巴厘島警方取消了給予這兩個博覽會的許可證，導致舉辦者取消了這兩個博覽會。

　　《世界煙草》稱，由于“巴厘島的失敗”引起人們擔心在印尼大選期間可能不會及時發放雅加達博覽會許可證，因此《世界煙草》與印尼當局進行了討論。《世界煙草》說，選擇舉辦博覽會的地點是雅加達的一處在建的展覽中心，該展覽中心是否能趕在11月的貿易博覽會前及時完工還是另一個令人擔心的問題。新的博覽會舉辦地在金沙會展中心（Sands Expo and Convention Centre），這是新加坡濱海灣金沙綜合樓（Marina Bay Sands complex）的一部分。

World Tobacco Shifts Asia Expo Venue to Singapore

　　World Tobacco Asia 2014 has been moved to Singapore from Indonesia and will be held as originally scheduled from 12-14 November, organisers said.

　　Earlier this year police in Bali, Indonesia, rescinded a permit for the Intertabac and ProTobEx shortly before the twin event was to take place in February, causing organisers to cancel the exhibitions.

　　World Tobacco (WT) said discussions with Indonesian authorities since the "Bali debacle" raised concerns that the licence would not be issued in time for the Jakarta show during what is a general election year in Indonesia. Whether the selected site, a Jakarta exhibition centre under construction, would be finished in time for the November trade fair was another worry, WT said. The new venue is the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, part of the Marina Bay Sands complex. Enditem
