It is recognized as one of the most important tri-service military events in the region. For manufacturers in the defense and internal security industry, Defense and Security 2019 is a ‘must-exhibit’ event with over 400 defense and internal security related companies on hand, including the world’s most famous military manufacturers in all three services - Land, Sea & Air plus internal Security.

Thousands of high-ranking military officers, security personnel and decision makers will be attending the event, including official delegations from 68 appointed countries - especially ASEAN and Ministers of Defense and Chiefs of Armed Forces. More than 60 nations from over 500 exhibiting companies will be participating in the show which will occupy over 30,000 square meters at the IMPACT Exhibition Center.
