4th Psychopharmacology Seminar at Persada Johor International Convention Centre

Our final day was the 4th Psychopharmacology Seminar at Persada Johor International Convention Centre. It was only about 15mins drive from Hyatt Regency.

It is situated beside The Puteri Pacific Hotel

The main entrance

The Convention Centre complex sits on a 2.43 ha (6 acres) site with a built-up area of 1.69 ha (4.2 acres) and 29 function rooms totalling 8,296 sq. metres (89,292 sq.ft.) There is also provision for a total of 9 retail shops and food & beverage outlets. The remaining land area features a multi-level parking complex accommodating 1,600 car-park spaces and 80 bus bays.

The architectural concept for the Persada Johor International Convention Centre draws its inspiration from historical elements of Johor and incorporates modern features so as to exude a sense of strength and integrity without compromising on functionality. It is designed to fill the critical need for an international standard Exhibition and Convention Centre in Johor and to advance Johor's progress into the 21st century.

Seminar room. Bear with the photo as the camera's zoom was terrible

The seminar was quite similar to the convention earlier but this is only for the pharmacists and most of the speakers are specialists from Hospital Permai. I just could not wait for it to end!

After the seminar, we had a quick buffet lunch at the nearby Puteri Pacific Hotel (connected to the Persada by a short skybridge) before we finally went back.
