Maldives Hotel and Trade Exhibition (MHTE), the biggest hotel and trade fair in the Maldives, opened last Tuesday in the Maldivean capital, Male.
Launched by Tourism Minister Hassan Sobir at a special ceremony, the three-day fair is held by Maldives National Chamber of Commerce and Industry and organised by Artline design.
This is the second time that the annual fair is being held, and participants said that they were satisfied with the organisation and arrangements made at the event.

Other sponsors include Sri Lankan airlines, Mookai Hotel, Logistics Maldives, Focus Computers, and Haveeru Daily as the official newspaper sponsor of the event from Maldives, and Daily News as the official newspaper sponsor from Sri Lanka.
