As you all know, TATEF Fair, which is used to being held once in every two years, has been canceled in spite of all the struggles of Tiad, because another fair was replaced with Tatef on the dates that had previously been arranged for TATEF.

With the majority opinion, the dates of TATEF Fair has been changed as 31 March and 4 April 2009. We all hope that there will be no other change in these dates and such events of international importance will not get anymore derogation.
