Real Estate and Housing Association of Bangladesh (Rehab), the apex body of developers, will organise the fair between February 20 and 24.

A total of 128 Rehab member firms and five investment companies will showcase their services and products at the Rehab fair, organisers told a press conference in Dhaka yesterday.

Adviser to the Ministry of Housing and Public Works Mainul Hosein is scheduled to inaugurate the show, which will remain open to visitors between 10am to 9pm everyday. However, on the first day visitors will get access to the fair from 2pm.

The entry fee for an individual is Tk 50 and for a family the fee is Tk 100. However, a visitor will get a five-day entry ticket at Tk 100.

"The fair was scheduled to be held in November last year. As the fair could not be organised during the period due to the political turmoil, we now call the show 'Rehab Fair, Dhaka-2006'," Abdul Awal, president of Rehab, said.

Besides, Rehab has also announced to observe 'Rehab Week 2006' from tomorrow.

For the first time, Rehab will also hold 'Rehab Fair Chittagong 2006' next month.
