PARIS, Feb 10 (Reuters) - Next month's Global Grain Asia
conference in Singapore, organised by Euromoney Institutional
Investor, has been postponed by at least three months
due to the coronavirus outbreak, organisers of the event told
Reuters on Monday.
The event will now take place either on June 17-19 or on
June 29-July 1, they said.
The organisers were expecting around 300 delegates to attend
the conference in March, they said.
The death toll from the coronavirus epidemic rose to 908,
all but two of them in mainland China, on Sunday as 97 more
fatalities were recorded - the largest number in a single day
since the virus was detected in the Chinese city of Wuhan in
December.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is investigating a few
coronavirus infections linked to an international business
meeting in Singapore last month, heightening concerns about the
spread of the disease outside China.
