Business convention in Davao

KENDARI (JP): Some 100 businessmen affiliated with the South
East Sulawesi chapter of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and
Industry (KADIN) will attend the first East Asia businessmen
conference in Davao, the Philippines, next month.

The convention was originally scheduled for May 24-28 but was
postponed after Indonesia protested against the Asia Pacific
Conference on East Timor which was held by the University of
Philippine recently.

Head of South East Sulawesi based of KADIN told the Antara
news agency that the businessmen who will attend the conference
represent fishery, plantation, mining and handicraft
industry.(yns)
