Endee says Liberia\u2019s participation is \u201cnot about dancing and music\u201d alone. Instead, it will be \u201cmaking a statement about who we are as a people and what we bring to the table\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The periodic world fair, taking place this year in Dubai, the UAE, runs from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022. It provides an opportunity for countries to showcase their unique potential through displays of their cultural heritage, innovation, business opportunities and general way of life. It\u2019s being held under the theme, \u201cConnecting Minds, Creating the Future\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Organizers say bringing the world together can serve as a catalyst for the \u201cexchange of new perspectives and inspire action to deliver real-life solutions to real-world challenges\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This year, 192 \u201cpavilions\u201d representing the total number of countries have been set up to feature each country\u2019s story. In addition to featuring Liberia\u2019s arts and craft, the country will also be exhibiting its potential in ecotourism, infrastructure, mining, Agriculture, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Artifacts of more than a hundred years, which convey the story of the Liberia\u2019s forefathers, will be on display, as will the account of President George M. Weah\u2019s humble beginning.<\/p>\n<p>The official Liberian delegation, headed by the Minister of State Without Portfolio, Trokon Kpui, will hold a major investment forum on the sidelines of the event with the Dubai Chamber of Commerce . About 60 investors from the UAE will meet with officials of the Liberian government and private business people from various sectors.<\/p>\n<p>Both sides are expected to explore opportunities in Agriculture, Tourism, commerce and industries, waste management, maritime, etc. Tuesday, November 30, has been set aside as \u201cLiberia Day\u201d at the Expo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will showcase Freedom, and our Cultural Heritage\u2019, Ambassador Endee told journalists at a MICAT briefing.<\/p>\n<p>She thanked President Weah, who she announced will not be in Dubai in person, but has nonetheless provided enormous support to ensure Liberia\u2019s participation is a resounding success.<\/p>\n<p>The Liberian government delegation will include Information Minister Ledgerhood Rennie, Acting Public Works Minister, Ruth C. Collins and Gender Minister Williametta Saydee Tarr, who is expected to speak on the role women have played in the Liberia society.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
