In the 2 nd Regional Event for Trade Facilitation & eBusiness in Iran in reply to the question of Mr. Hemmat Veyci, Mr. Yann Louis Duval mentioned that in case there is no candidate for being host for the AFACT meeting, one government can write a letter to ESCAP for being host of the AFACT meeting in Thailand. He added that by accepting some expenses from participants, ESCAP can hold the meeting. In the other hand the ESCAP will act as a host except that the participants need to pay for the foods/breaks during the meetings. The point here is that one Government should write the request and not AFACT chair.
