Newsletter to Exhibitors

36th Tokyo Motor Show - Commercial Vehicles (2002)
Request for Exhibitors' Cooperation Regarding Press Information

We kindly request that you provide materials for distribution to the press according to the following outline:

1. Press Information (applicable to all Exhibitors)
   At Tokyo Motor Shows in the past, we included information on the numbers of exhibits by segment along with other show information in a "Press Information," based on a "Detailed list of exhibit items" submitted by the Exhibitors. Starting with the 36th Tokyo Motor Show ﾐ Commercial Vehicles (2002), the organizer will provide the press with a summary of information on exhibits being presented for the first time in the world or in Japan, in order to improve information services to the press and at the same time encourage attendance by the general public through the publicity of such information. To this end, we will create Press Information as described below.
   
   
   1. Information to be provided:
      • Exhibits to be presented for the first time anywhere in the world (applicable to all Exhibitors of vehicles, vehicle bodies, and parts sections)
      • Exhibits to be presented for the first time in Japan (applicable to all Exhibitors of vehicles, vehicle bodies, and parts sections)

      "World's Premiere" and "Japan's Premiere" Exhibits Definitions: "Exhibits presented for the first time anywhere in the world" stands for the exhibits which are presented for the first time in the world at the Tokyo Motor Show. "Exhibits presented for the first time in Japan" stands for the exhibits that have already been presented at other motor shows and/or venues overseas, but which are presented for the first time in Japan at the Tokyo Motor Show. Judgment: Independent judgment by the Exhibitor

      
      
   2. Applications
      • Added to the Press Information as exhibit information.
      • Used for advance publicity in the Tokyo Motor Show News and other media.
      • Used for advance publicity on the Tokyo Motor Show Website.
        
        
   3. How to provide information
      Starting from this year's Motor Show, the form of the "Detailed list of exhibit items" submitted by the Exhibitors is to be available on-line via the Motor Show Website (Refer to the sample attachment). Please input the requested information in the Exhibitors' page as notified in the July 15 edition of the Newsletter to Exhibitors.

2. Request for Providing Exhibitors' Press Information for the Secretariat's use
   (Applicable only to Exhibitors of commercial vehicles, commercial vehicle bodies, and electric vehicles sections)
   At this year's show, we decided to stop making available the "Highlights of each Exhibitor," which had been produced by Exhibitors and bound by the Secretariat as a compact reference of exhibits in previous Shows.
   In place of this publication, we request that you provide the following information so that the Secretariat can gain a prior understanding of exhibits in order to respond appropriately to press inquiries.
   1. Materials
      Press materials created for announcements at the Tokyo Motor Show by each exhibitor after lifting of the press embargo (October 11 (Friday). (Applicable only to Exhibitors of commercial vehicles, commercial vehicle bodies, and electric vehicles sections)
   2. Copies needed
      Please provide 15 copies of the materials to the Tokyo Motor Show Dept. at the address shown below.
