I was passing through the area and saw that ADEX was in Singapore this year as the event goes between Bangkok and Singapore and decided to make a side trip and take it in and see what they had on display sometimes at the dive shows you can get really cheap dive gear and I have to tell you that I wqs very disappointed as the number of the big vendors like the dive equipment manufactures like Mares Scuba Pro and the dive compressor companies there was only one L&W which they seem like good machines I just have never seen one in the field.
In years past Buaer and Coltri sub would be there showing off all of their wares and you would see lots of smaller dive equipment sales going on. This was very disappointing.
I also expected to see more of the dive operators from around the region notably missing were the dive operators from Thailand Vietnam and Cambodia. PNG which has had good turn outs in the past was sparsely populated. The one country that had a lot of representation was Indonesia but one would expect this as Singapore is a flight hub for Indonesia with tons of flights daily to Jacarta and Bali on the cheaper Indonesian airlines.
