iciHaiti - Osaka World Expo : Haiti Day
On Saturday, October 11, 2025, Laurent Saint-Cyr, President pro tempore and Coordinator of the Transitional Council, on mission to Japan, participated in Haiti Day, organized as part of the Osaka World Expo on the sidelines of his official visit to Japan.

Haiti Day marked the last national day before the end of this major global event on October 13, 2025.

This event, organized by the Japanese authorities, provided an opportunity to showcase Haitian creativity, culture, and the richness of its heritage in a setting that was both understated and imbued with national pride.

An official ceremony was held in honor of the Haitian delegation, attended by Laurent St-Cyr, John Herrick Dessources, Minister of Tourism; Raina Forbin, St-Cyr's Chief of Staff; Louis Harold Joseph, Haitian Ambassador to Japan; Jean-Marie Théodat, Haitian Commissioner General for the exhibition; and Jean-Yves Muscadin Jason, Director of the Haiti Pavilion. Also in attendance were entrepreneurs, artists, and media representatives.

This celebration was marked by a high-quality performance featuring several Haitian artists, including Marie Lyndsay Jason, Gina Théodat, Ti Tanbou, and the musical group Asakivle. The audience was also treated to a rara parade hosted by DJ Manito, a living symbol of Haitian energy and joie de vivre.

The show organized for the occasion, along with the Haiti Pavilion, offered the Japanese public an immersion in Haiti's cultural richness through our crafts, music, and historical sites.

The Haiti Pavilion established itself as a space for exchange, encounters, and discovery during the Expo. Nearly 500,000 visitors on site, and millions of internet users around the world, were able to explore seven facets of our rich identity, each conveying a message of openness, sharing, creativity, and resilience.

Following the day's events, the Haitian delegation held a luncheon with Japanese officials, followed by a reception hosted by the Embassy of Haiti in Japan.

For the Haitian authorities, Haiti's participation in this global event goes beyond a simple cultural showcase. It reflects the desire to build a new national narrative : that of a creative, resilient, and forward-looking people. Through this presence at Osaka-Kansai 2025, Haiti reaffirms its place among nations, as a country of inspiration, innovation, and culture, driven by the conviction that a better future is built on pride and solidarity.
