Update on Press Registration at ADB Annual Meeting
HYDERABAD, INDIA - On-site media registration has closed for ADB’s 39th Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors in Hyderabad. Media who registered online before the 14 April deadline will still be accommodated. Other media must now register via an email to onair@adb.org or by fax at 2342 8680 before they may be accommodated. Further registrations will be restricted to one representative of each media organization. Up to 2,500 delegates are expected for the event, running 3-6 May at the Hyderabad International Convention Center. Besides media, the event brings together senior government officials, academics, business people, investment bankers, and representatives of international organizations and NGOs. Among the issues expected to figure prominently this year are the development challenges facing Asia in the face of global imbalances, India's - and South Asia's - role in a region that is rapidly integrating, and the Asia and Pacific region's massive infrastructure needs. Delegates will be looking at how to address poverty in the context of these challenges and, in particular, how ADB can respond to the region's changing needs. The Annual Meeting's formal Opening Session takes place at the HICC on Friday, 5 May. Annual meetings are statutory occasions for the Governors of ADB members to provide guidance on ADB administrative, financial, and operational directions. It is ADB's second to be held in India, following one in New Delhi in 1990. About ADB |
