The three-day ‘Eastern Bank Limited (EBL) 2nd Dhaka Motor Show-2007’ will begin on March 15 at the Bangladesh China Friendship Conference Centre (BCFCC) in the city, reports BSS.
This was disclosed at a press conference jointly organised by the EBL and Conference and Exhibition Management Services (CEMS) at a local hotel.

Managing Director of EBL Mahmud Sattar, additional managing director Ali Reza Iftekar, director of Rahimafrooz distribution Limited Niaz Rahim, managing director of CEMS Mehrun N Islam, among others, were present.
Mahmud Sattar said the main objective of organizing the motor shoe is to provide a perfect platform for the country’s automobile industry and to aware the customers of the new products being offered to them as well as enhancing the trade in Bangladesh.
Twenty seven automobile companies from Bangladesh, India, China, Japan will showcase their automobile components.
Besides, a number of commercials banks will demonstrate their loan schemes with lower interest rates in the fair.

Notice that Germany is not mentioned in the list of countries that will showcase the automobiles. I hope it'll be worth the trip to the show.
