Marinfec Asia 79
All of Singapore's major ship-
yards will participate in the Mar-
intec Asia 79 Exhibition in Sing-
apore, June 11-15, 1979.
The exhibition is being held in
conjunction with four separate
but interrelated seminars, with
the common theme of marine
transportation.
The participation by both lo-
cal and other shipyards from
throughout the world is seen by
Marintec Asia organizer Hugh

the growing importance of the
Southeast Asian market for ship-
building and ships' gear supply.

hibiting at Marintec Asia 79 are
