煙草在線據(jù)《國(guó)際煙草雜志》報(bào)道編譯　　2014年世界煙草亞洲博覽會(huì)的組織者說(shuō)，該博覽會(huì)已經(jīng)從印尼轉(zhuǎn)移到新加坡，并將于11月12日至14日如期舉行。

　　今年早些時(shí)候，就在Intertabac煙草博覽會(huì)和ProTobEx博覽會(huì)按計(jì)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(gè)博覽會(huì)的許可證，導(dǎo)致舉辦者取消了這兩個(gè)博覽會(huì)。

　　《世界煙草》稱，由于“巴厘島的失敗”引起人們擔(dān)心在印尼大選期間可能不會(huì)及時(shí)發(fā)放雅加達(dá)博覽會(huì)許可證，因此《世界煙草》與印尼當(dāng)局進(jìn)行了討論。《世界煙草》說(shuō)，選擇舉辦博覽會(huì)的地點(diǎn)是雅加達(dá)的一處在建的展覽中心，該展覽中心是否能趕在11月的貿(mào)易博覽會(huì)前及時(shí)完工還是另一個(gè)令人擔(dān)心的問(wèn)題。新的博覽會(huì)舉辦地在金沙會(huì)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　　Earlier this year police in Bali, Indonesia, rescinded a permit for the Intertabac and ProTobEx shortly before the twin event was to take place in February, causing organisers to cancel the exhibitions.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
