This week: The two dominant events of the week were the new war in the Middle East and the APLF exhibition in Hong Kong. It is debatable which had a greater influence on trade during the week. Several people were unable to attend the show because they had booked flights from or via the war zone. Others decided not to come because alternative flights were too expensive, or because they felt it would no longer be appropriate to fly. Arriving in Hong Kong, just one floor was enough to host all the exhibitors from all sectors.
