INTERESTING FACTS:

  • World Expo is one of the world’s oldest and largest international events that takes place every five years and lasts for up to six months.
  • Participants include, nations, international organizations, companies and civil organizations. They attract millions of visitors and are characterized by a chosen theme, which has to be of universal concern.
  • World Expo has never been held in the Middle East, Africa and the South East Asia region.

To build a better world, we need to use our heads and our hearts. The Expo subthemes help to guide us on this journey together.

MALDIVES

 

The Maldives is a nation of islands in the Indian Ocean, that spans across the equator. The country is comprised of 1192 islands that stretch along a length of 871 kilometers. While the country covers an area of approximately 90,000 square kilometers, only 298 square kilometers of that is dry land. The islands are grouped into a double chain of 26 atolls.


The country’s unique geography mesmerizes the visitor. Reefs that offer bands of color, tiny jewel-like islands rimmed with the whitest of soft sand surrounded by the clearest shallow waters that one can imagine. Only 200 of the islands are inhabited, and a select few on each of the atolls are resorts and some of the islands are used for industry and agriculture.


The beauty of the Maldives is not only above the water. The Maldives is home to about five percent of the planet’s reefs that comes with an explosion of color contributed by soft and hard corals that form them. The reefs are home to a thousand species of fish. Lured by the rich nutrients that flow in with the currents, large pelagic fishes such as manta rays and whale sharks also make the Maldives their home.

Had a great time. Just didn’t care for all the themes and having to dress up on vacation. Other than that it was a good time.

We had a good time. However, there were not many kid friendly events. I wish I had known this before bringing my teen with me.
By Renequa J for 2023 Promoters United "Rep Your City"/LEO Cruise (Aruba Edition) on Aug 22, 2023
I had an absolute ball! The entertainment was phenomenal and the ship was like a floating city with tons of activities and food. I definitely will be traveling with the group again! Thank you Diane for a great time and thank you Veronica for inviting me along for a wonderful experience!
