Welcome to MECA

Message from AFECA

Dear AFECA Members,

On behalf of AFECA, I wish to sincerely express my deepest sympathy, concerns and support to those who have been affected by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. It is a tough time for our industry, but as a big family of AFECA, we will stand together to tide over the crisis.

The new epidemic has caused serious harm to global and domestic MICE industries and tourism, especially in Asia. As important exchange and sharing platforms, MICE events are the first to be affected. Although the situation is challenging, we believe that MICE events are the best platform to share knowledge, develop cooperation, and promote business opportunities. The short-term impact of the epidemic is severe; however, we expect the MICE industry to bounce back and experience considerable growth again once the situation has settled.

AFECA is one of the most important platforms for Asia's MICE players. We are collecting critical information on epidemic prevention measures and development of the epidemic in Asian countries, and will share this information on AFECA's website and by email to ensure all members remain well-informed.

As the President of AFECA, I call all members to unite, share, cooperate and support each other at this difficult time. Together, we will make it through this crisis!

Best regards,
Walter M.S. Yeh
President
