KARACHI, April 4: A two-day Dawn Education Expo 2004 concluded here on Sunday night. The organizers of the exhibition said that thousands of visitors, mostly students
, turned up at the Expo Centre where more than 30 stalls were set up in a hall to offer services and educational opportunities.
They said visitors' response was so overwhelmingly that they had decided to hold the exhibition in all the three halls of the Expo Centre next year. They added that exhibitions would also be held in at least three cities - Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad - of the country. The organizers said that most of the exhibitors wanted to take part in the Dawn Expo next year.
They said: "Students begin to look for educational institutes at this time of the year and have to go from one place to another for information about the institutes. They came here in droves to get their hands on brochures and catalogues of various institutes."
A representative of an educational institute said: "We got serious queries from students and their parents. Most of them meant business and quite a few of them got their children enrolled."
