South Korea has asked Indonesia for support in its bid to host the 2030 World Expo in Busan.
Busan, South Korea’s second-largest city, is competing against Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, and Rome for the opportunity to host the event, which allows countries to construct pavilions and showcase their potential.
The South Korean government is currently holding an exhibition in Jakarta to promote Busan and seek Indonesia’s support for hosting the 2030 World Expo.
“We believe South Korea is the perfect country to host the event,” said Park Soo Duk, deputy to the South Korean Ambassador to Indonesia, during a press conference in Jakarta on Monday.—ANTARA
