BOI Fair 2011.
The top three most favorite pavilions are Royal Pavilion, Thailand Pavilion, and BOI Pavilion. Royal Pavilion or Sala Satha Som features knowledge regarding His Majesty the King’s royal activities about soil, water, forests and humans. At Thailand Pavilion, its highlight is “Thongtos” Robot, made by Thai creators, who can interact with visitors in four languages. BOI Pavilion exhibits history of investment promotion from the past to present and a 4-dimension theatre for visitors.
“We are very happy that BOI Fair 2011 has helped provide knowledge for Thai youths. And we are even more appreciated to learn that after Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn presided over the opening ceremony of BOI Fair 2011, HRH told teachers at Chitralada School that BOI was a good event and it would be great to bring students to learn from the event. After that Chitralada School did bring teachers and students to visit BOI Fair 2011,” she said.
