Pamela Anderson, Lindsay Lohan and Miley Cyrus?s mum Tish all supported the Dubai bid for Expo 2020 on their Twitter page. Expo celebrations will make National Day even more special.

The tremendous support generated among Emiratis and expatriates showcased the UAE?s commitment to hosting the global event.?Shaikh Ahmad Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of Dubai Civil Aviation, Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates airline and Group and Chairman of Higher Committee on World Expo 2020, leaded the bid delegation.
