FIABCI World Congress cancelled
22 May 2009
Congress FIABCI have advised the REIA that the Chinese government has unilaterally ordered the China Real Estate Association (CREA) to cancel the 60th FIABCI World Congress until further notice.
This cancellation is due to the Chinese government’s concerns regarding the renewed spread of the H1N1 swine flu epidemic.
The recent renewed activity of the H1N1 virus is a real threat and the Chinese government is acting responsibly. Gathering 600 delegates from 35 countries in the current context would be irresponsible.
FIABCI’s primary goal is to handle immediate logistics to minimise the inconvenience and impact this cancellation brings to their worldwide membership. |
