"Dubai is this week pitching to host the World Expo 2020 amid quiet confidence among the emirate’s business community that the bid will be successful, securing a surge in economic activity.
The United Arab Emirates delegation, headed by ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is up against four rival presentations to the Paris-based body that oversees world fairs, at which member states erect thematic national pavilions.
With the Thai bid was disqualified, the other contenders are Ekaterinburg in Russia, Izmir in Turkey and São Paulo in Brazil. The Bureau International des Expositions will announce the winner in November."
