MYAKU-MYAKU in Hong Kong
The Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition (referred to as “the Association”) will be showcasing Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan (referred to as “the Expo”) at NATAS Holidays 2024 in Singapore (16-18 August 2024).
At the event, a special PR booth will highlight the Expo's attractions, and the official character MYAKU-MYAKU will debut in Singapore to meet and greet visitors. Additionally, there will be social media campaigns where visitors can snap photos and post them online to receive commemorative Expo items. With less than 300 days until the Expo opens, MYAKU-MYAKU's visit aims to generate excitement and build momentum for the upcoming event.

About “MYAKU-MYAKU”
A mysterious creature born from the unification of cells and water. Its identity is unknown. The red part is the “cell,” which divides and increases. The blue part is “clean water,” which can be transformed to flow. It seems that it is looking for itself to be who it wants to be, and has transformed into various shapes. The figure takes its shape by imitating human beings.
However, it may change its appearance too much and forget its original shape. The source of its energy is to go outside and enjoy the sunlight. It also loves rainy days and can take the rain into its body. MYAKU-MYAKU dreams that everyone knows about it even before the Expo’s opening and that it will meet many people at Expo 2025, Osaka, Kansai, Japan.
NATAS Holidays is a travel expo organised by the National Association of Travel Agents of Singapore (NATAS). Look out for the exhibition booth situated in the Japan pavilion coordinated by Japan National Tourist Organisation (JNTO). Here, visitors can learn about the attractions of Expo 2025 and the Singapore pavilion. A highlight of the event will be a meet-and-greet with Expo 2025’s official character, MYAKU-MYAKU, along with an Expo quiz competition at the mini stage in the Japan pavilion. Visitors can snap commemorative photos, and those who share their photos on social media or answer quiz questions correctly will have the chance to win exclusive Expo items.
Additionally, MYAKU-MYAKU will be joined by Hiroshima Prefecture’s local character, HIROKUMA, who was introduced in September 2023. This marks MYAKU-MYAKU’s first visit to Singapore, and the character will not only appear on the mini stage but also take to the event’s main stage to actively promote the Expo to a broader audience.
