MANAGING DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE


Sawasdee Ka

Dear friends,

The end of the year is certainly a perfect time to look back and contemplate on our achievements, as we look forward to perceive what we still need to accomplish.

Just like the previous years we have had the opportunity to play host to many significant events, and the pleasure and great honour of welcoming many local and international dignitaries and valuable guests – notably, HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn.

2011 started off with high profile domestic and international events conducted and supported by the Government Savings Bank Thailand, Pruksa Real Estate, Muang Thai Life Assurance, the Ministry of Education and the Capital Market Academy. With PEACH's efficiency in undertaking a big-scale event, the world-class 23rd International Olympiad in Informatics Thailand did not have any second thoughts in holding their event with us. Likewise with the Pattaya Food & Hoteliers Expo 11 (5th Edition), which is Thailand's biggest hospitality art competition and showcase – for three consecutive years they have been patronising PEACH. It was certainly, may I add, a remarkable achievement to witness the success of the Royal Cliff Hotels Group team scoring the highest overall point and earning the highest number of gold medals in the event.

The Islamic Bank of Thailand also converged at PEACH for their 'IBANK – Get Together', even the Network 21 International Go Diamond 2011 business meeting, the Thai Electrical & Mechanical Contractors Association's 27th Seminar & Exhibition, India's Titan Industries Business Associates Meeting, and PEPSICo India's Annual Conference. We even hosted a vibrant and colourful wedding and became the venue for the shooting of Bollywood movie 'Ready'. PEACH also had a complete transformation when it hosted the Asia Pacific Golf Summit and Asia Pacific Golf Development Conferences.

As PEACH's clientele continues to expand and diversify, we will go on delivering our personalised and professional services at all times with value-added choices in products and facilities. We are positioning ourselves in ensuring that innovative and creative ideas are augmented and that we are flexible and accommodating to the current trends and needs. Our numerous citations and awards coming from distinguished and well-known organisations and publications are living testament that we only strive for quality and excellence.

I would like to thank you, our partners, clients and supporters for entrusting us your business. Let me assure you that PEACH will continue to work towards strengthening its stand as the business tourism destination of choice for international, regional and local conventions, concerts, trade shows, exhibitions, entertainment events, banquets and meetings.

As 2011 comes to an end, let us, with all optimism, hope for more opportunities, triumphs, and brighter 2012! A Very Happy and Prosperous New Year to all! Again, thank you for all your support and see you at PEACH in 2012.

Best wishes,
