Izmir experienced an enormous excitement by the meeting of BIE General Assembly, which decided about the host of EXPO in the year 2015, on 31st March 2008. Izmir took challenge of organisation of EXPO 2015 with competing Milano of Italy. EXPO 2015 Izmir offered the theme "New Roots to a better World / Health for All".
The people of Izmir gathered in Cumhuriyet Square by the help of the concerts... They were very excited and they hoped for a good result... I shared this great joy there with the crowd as well.
Even if the first TV news gave the news for celebration, Izmir could not succeed in the competition. Milano will host EXPO in 2015...
Izmir, may be next time? 2018?...
