The mission was made to Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore from March 21 to April 2.

During the mission, HDCC delegation had discussions with 16 BDCs and exchanged a range of information on small and medium industrial development. Arrangements including air transfer, hotel reservation, local transport, discussions with BDCs, visa, meetings with ambassadors and high commissions were made by the ISB.
