We were a little concerned about the number of visitors to the show, as it was the first time in about three years that we hold our regular private show, but we had many visitors every day and the event concluded successfully with a great enthusiasm. We are very delighted with the success of the show," said Mr. Yamashita, MD of Takamatsu Machinery Thailand.
