The UAE Pavilion at Expo 2017 Astana, managed and supervised by the National Media Council (NMC), has witnessed widespread interest from a broad range of international VIPs and visitors since its opening on June 10.

The visitor numbers at the pavilion reached 150,000 during its first month, said a report.

The pavilion, held under the theme 'Future Energy', represents an ideal platform that enables visitors to gain key insights into the UAE’s strategy to achieving energy security by creating a diverse balance of energy sources that include both traditional sources, such as hydrocarbon, and renewable energy while showcasing the UAE efforts, initiatives and projects in the field, on a domestic and international realm, reported state news agency Wam.

Its content reflects the UAE leadership’s vision and its focus on human capacity as the true investment of the UAE, and as a catalyst to create comprehensive sustainable development, on all levels.

As one of the largest country exhibitors at the expo, the UAE pavilion is equipped with a range of interactive digital features to engage visitors, such as a virtual host that guides visitors through the experience, self-guiding activities and digital summaries of the entire tour upon completion, for each visitor.

The event will continue until September 10, and the UAE pavilion is scheduled to hold its symbolic ‘National Day’ on September 6 as part of its participation.

The NMC will be organising a broad range of exciting events and activities that reflect the country’s love and pride in the nation’s past and present, and its values as a role model of tolerance and coexistence, added the report.
