 For Immediate Release Panasonic Participates for the 3rd time in the Malaysian International Dive Expo 2009 (MIDE ‘09) Kuala Lumpur, 30 April 2009 – Panasonic a company that believes in ‘co-existence with the environment’, reemphasizes its eco commitment to sustain the well being of marine life through marine conservation activities by continuing its participation in the Malaysian International Dive Expo 2009 (MIDE ’09) for the 3rd consecutive year to be held at Putra World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur from 3 till 5 July 2009. Azizah Wahid, General Manager Corporate Communications & Branding for Panasonic Malaysia explained that, “We support MIDE in promoting Malaysia and its surrounding waters as Asia’s best diving spots and one of the Best Dive Destinations in the world. Our primary focus in participating MIDE is to share our marine conservation efforts. It is also one of our corporate responsibility initiatives to help conserve the environment and marine life through artificial reef construction. Since 2005, we have deployed almost 100 units of artificial reefs in different designs into the waters of Pulau Perhentian to encourage coral growth.” “This exhibition is a good platform for us to raise awareness to the visitors who may be mostly divers, future divers or general public to be responsible and mindful while engaging in especially water sport activities. For divers, coral and marine life is the main attraction. These underwater treasures take a long time to recover and will be destroyed if they are not preserved through responsible activities and habits.” Besides sharing Panasonic’s corporate responsibility on environment, Azizah also added that, “Our latest Lumix cameras with underwater housing will be displayed for visitors. There will be an underwater photography trial session using an aquarium. This year, for the first time, we will display underwater photographs that were taken by Panasonic divers using Lumix underwater camera models.” During the expo, Panasonic Malaysia will also conduct 2 seminars, namely: No. Date Topic Time 1. 4 July 2009 (Saturday) Marine Conservation 1.00pm – 2.00pm 2. 5 July 2009 (Sunday) LUMIX Underwater Photography 2.00pm - 3.00pm Panasonic will occupy booth No A84, A85, A86 to A99, A100, A101.
