Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai, said on Saturday the emirate will double its efforts to make Expo 2020 Dubai a success.
He said he was confident in the preparations for the world fair, at a meeting with officials of the Supreme Committee for Crisis and Disaster Management.
“We expect the work teams to double their efforts to raise our readiness to host a distinguished Expo 2020 Dubai,” Sheikh Hamdan said.
“I am confident that everyone will be able to carry out this task to the fullest extent. We have the means, knowledge and highly qualified crews necessary to achieve the goal.”
Sheikh Hamdan was briefed on the efforts being made at local and federal levels to ensure the health and safety of Expo 2020 Dubai staff and visitors ahead of the event.
He was also updated on the vaccination campaign launched by the Dubai Health Authority.
The emirate announced free vaccinations for all Expo participants and their staff in April.
While vaccination will be mandatory for the Expo workforce, it is being encouraged, but not enforced, for visitors and tourists.
Expo 2020 Dubai is set to run from October 1 until March 31, 2022.
