"The conference will bring together 2,500 to 3,000 participants from more than 100 Guangdong community organizations from all over the world," Chief of the Indonesian Guangdong Community Federation Sugeng Prananto said here on Monday.
The participants would come among others from Mauritius, Argentina, China, the United States, Seychelles, Brazil, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Malaysia, Brunai Darussalam, the Philippines, Myanmar, Japan, France, Australia, Singapore, New Zealand, Canada, Panama, and host Indonesia.
