World Expo 2025: Here’s How Osaka Will Bring Back the Crowds
The Netherlands has as of late declared its cooperation in Expo 2025 in Osaka, Kansai, Japan, and the plan for the Netherlands Structure has been unveiled. What separates this structure is its special and completely round idea, alongside the consideration of an anthropogenic sun. Guests to the structure, whether people or delegates of organizations, legislatures, and information foundations, will have the potential chance to find noteworthy advances that tackle the force of water, making environmentally friendly power more available to everybody. The Netherlands Structure exhibits the creative arrangements that the Netherlands brings to the table in handling worldwide difficulties connected with energy change.

That is a hell of a weird-looking character. Nice!
The official character of the Japan Expo 2025, “MYAKU-MYAKU”, has been revealed!
PROFILE
Place of birth: A small spring somewhere in Kansai.
Personality: friendly, goofy, clumsy
Special skills: Transforming into various shapes and finding a rainbow after the rain.
Favorite things: Interacting with all creatures and things.A mysterious creature born from the unification of cells and water. Its identity is unknown.
The red part is the “cell,” which divides and increases.
The blue part is “clean water,” which can be transformed to flow.
It seems that it is looking for itself to be who it wants to be, and has transformed into various shapes.
The figure takes its shape by imitating human beings.
However, it may change its appearance too much and forget its original shape.
The source of its energy is to go outside and enjoy the sunlight. It also loves rainy days and can take the rain into its body.
MYAKU-MYAKU dreams that everyone knows about it even before the Expo’s opening and that it will meet many people at Expo 2025, Osaka, Kansai, Japan.
