May 27, 2025 – Osaka, Japan: “The theme of Pakistan pavilion at Expo 2025, Osaka is inspired by unique natural treasure Pink Rock Salt, found only in the Salt Range of Pakistan”, said Mr. Jam Kamal Khan, Federal Minister for Commerce, Islamic Republic of Pakistan, while talking to media today at Expo 2025, Osaka. During the media briefing, he outlined the vision of Pakistan’s participation in World Expo 2025, Osaka; which encapsulates Pakistan’s goals for sustainable growth, cultural harmony, and economic prospects. The event was attended by both Japanese and international media.
Sharing insights on the broader vision of participation, the Honorable Minister emphasized that Pakistan cannot remain absent from global platforms like Expo 2025 Osaka, where the world comes together to exchange ideas and to address challenges collectively. He stated that Pakistan has made its presence felt with a bold and unified theme that reflects the country’s commitment to sustainability, creativity and exemplary craftsmanship.
He narrated that with the theme “Universe in a Grain of Salt,” Pakistan’s pavilion presents a compelling narrative rooted in nature. Highlighting the Pavilion’s symbolic use of pink rock salt—one of Pakistan’s most iconic natural resources—the Minister explained, “Salt, in its purity and strength, represents our timeless connection to the earth. Through it, we are sharing a vision of sustainability and nature-centric progress with the world.”
“The Pavilion was built on 100% energy conservation and minimal carbon emissions, aligning perfectly with the broader theme of Expo 2025: ‘Designing Future Societies for Our Lives,’” he added. “Our message is both simple—future societies must be born from nature and must remain linked to it.”
The media talk also offered a closer look at the growing impact of the Pakistan Pavilion, which has become one of the most visited pavilions at Expo 2025. Drawing attention with its architectural references to pink rock salt and natural materials, the Pavilion tells a story of wellness, nature, and cultural reflection.
“The Pavilion has touched a nerve, it’s about reconnecting with nature, and with each other,” the Minister noted. “It’s more than design; it’s a message of balance and renewal.”
Minister Jam Kamal Khan also shared details of Pakistan’s vibrant lineup of upcoming events at the Expo, including the Pakistan Food Festival, Cultural Performances, Trade-Related Conferences, and the National Day celebrations on August 14. These events aim to foster cross-cultural dialogue, celebrate Pakistan’s creative energy, and highlight the country’s dynamic trade potential.
