Following official presentation, Wroclaw delighted with bid to host Expo 2010
A great deal of enthusiasm accompanied the Polish presentation in Paris
yesterday to organize and host the Expo 2010 exhibition. Wroclaw is
competing to win the bid alongside the cities of Shanghai, Moscow, Mexican
Querataro and Korean Yose, but it was the Polish proposition that was best
received. "I think that we have moved the public, not only with our unique
concepts, but also by the charm of our city," said Pawel Moras, the
spokesperson for the Expo 2010 Wroclaw Bureau. They proposed that the theme
of the exhibition be Culture - Science - Media. "We wanted to show how
important communication between people is. In terms of ideas presented, we
believe we are now a favorite in the race to host Expo 2010," said Moras.
The city has already spent zl. 5.5 million on promotional related
activities. (Prawo i Gospodarka, p. 4) A.D.
