YEREVAN, April 23. /ARKA/. Armenia will benefit a great deal from its
participation in EXPO 2010 Shanghai China, a deputy economy minister
Ara Petrosian said today. He said some 100 million people are expected
to visit the EXPO.
Shanghai Expo 2010 promotes the motto "Better City, Better Life" and
Armenia is attending the expo displaying its concept of the City of
World which he said reflects the image of Armenian people and its
constructive and creative mindset.
He said the EXPO will provide Armenian businessmen with a platform to
showcase their products and services. The Armenian pavilion will have
a special sector for conducting business stalks.
Robert Harutyunian, director general of the Armenian Development
Agency (ADA) said exhibitions of this scale is a good opportunity for
any country to present its economic, scientific and cultural
potential.
He said Armenia is one of 13 countries which were allowed to have an
on-line presentation of their pavilions and the only country allowed
to update it permanently.
The Armenian government released a total of 170 million Drams last and
this year for preparing the country for the EXPO. The government of
China has released a $680,000 grant to Armenia, Robert Harutyunian
said.
The EXPO opens on May 1. 'Armenia will present its project of the City
of the World, which is a place where likeminded people come together
to create the architecture and conditions of life in the City of
Tomorrow. It is a city where people will live a harmonious, respectful
and spiritual life and will build sustainable economies,' Robert
Harutyunian said.
