China to host Cebit Asia on infrastructure

NEW DELHI: India has lost to China the rights to host the biggest annual IT and telecom business fair in Asia due to poor infrastructure, the director of the fair has said. ``Due to the lack of infrastructure in India for holding trade fairs of such massive magnitude, we are holding the first Cebit Asia trade show in Shanghai next year," Mr. Jorg Schomburg, director of Deutsche Messe AG, the organisers of the fair said. The Shanghai fair is the inaugural version of the world's biggest IT and telecom fair, `Cebit' being held annually in Hanover (Germany), Mr. Schomburg said.
