BPA Invites Mombasaju Council Chairperson... Promotion of Busan Port

Busan Port Authority (BPA) promoted Busan Port and expressed its commitment to hosting the 2030 Expo to a delegation led by the Speaker of the Mombasa County Assembly in Kenya, which has the largest port in East Africa, on the 26th.

Mombasa is Kenya's economic hub and a city with a developed marine tourism industry, home to Mombasa Port, the largest port in East Africa. Mombasa Port handles 70% of the total container cargo volume in East Africa.

The port area is equipped with an international airport nearby and has an economic activation zone with tax reduction benefits, making it expected to continue developing as the economic center of the East African region.

This visit by the Mombasa assembly members was arranged to demonstrate Busan's determination to host the Expo to African continent countries and to introduce the redevelopment area of Bukhang, the planned Expo site.

The Bureau International des Expositions (BIE), which decides the Expo host site, has a total of 179 member countries, and among them, Africa has the largest number of member countries, making it a key battleground for the decision of the 2030 World Expo host.
