Indonesia, the world's largest archipelago with more than 17,000 islands, will feature prominently at the forthcoming Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea, a Korean official has said.
"Being the biggest archipelagic nation, Indonesia will have one of the biggest pavilions at the 2012 Yeosu Expo," the Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea Organizing Committee's deputy director general for overseas marketing, Kang Jeong-goo, told The Jakarta Post on Thursday in Jakarta.
The expo organizing committee, Kang said, is expecting around 30,000 visitors from Indonesia. Nearly eight million visitors from all over the world are expected to visit the event.
Kang is in Jakarta to promote the Expo 2012, which will be held from May 12, 2012 to Aug. 12, 2012 in the South Korean city of Yeosu.
"We expect Indonesia's Ministry of Maritime and Fisheries to contribute in a big way to the success of Yeosu Expo".
At least 100 countries are expected to participate in this global expo, which has a theme of "The Living Oceans and Coasts"
