Queensland Truck and Machinery Show

Australia, Brisbane, Queensland - Thursday 15th to Sunday 18th May 2003
The CVIAQ Queensland Truck and Machinery Show has been organised by the CVIAQ since its inception in 1968 (then known as "Brisbane Truck Show") and has grown into the largest display of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. It is recognised as the premier event in Australia for the transport industry showcasing the latest technology and products by manufacturers and suppliers.
Continuing the successful relationship formed in 1989, the members of the Australian Associated Equipment Distributors (AAED) will also be exhibiting. Consequently the show will again be promoted as "The Queensland Truck & Machinery Show."

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
