JAKARTA (JP): Paris-based organizer of world's largest
International Building and Construction Exhibition Batimat is
inviting Indonesians to participate in its 20th exhibition to
take place in Paris on Nov. 6-11 this year.

Batimat's general manager Peter Hazelzet told a promotion
conference here on Thursday that the exhibition to occupy a
170,000 square meters area of Porte de Versailles Exhibition
Center, in western Paris, will be also associated to another
exhibition: the 14th International Heating, Refrigerating and Air
Conditioning exhibition Interclima, which will take place on the
same time at Nord Villepinte, in northern Paris.

"These are international exhibitions, last year 40 percent of
the visitors were foreigners, so you are not going to meet the
French only but also international buyers," Hazelzet said.

In Indonesia Batimat is represented by French Commitee for
Exhibition Promotions, a division of French embassy's commercial
department, operating at World Trade Center.(als)
