Accra (Greater Accra), 28 Jan. '99 - The National Commission on Culture (NCC) in collaboration with embassies and foreign cultural centres will organise a millennium cultural exposition in December in Accra. Nana Akuoko Sarpong, Presidential Staffer for Chieftaincy Affairs and Chairman of the NCC, said this today when he met directors of foreign cultural centres and cultural attaches to discuss ways of fostering stronger co-operation. " We are envisioning a world class exposition that the people of Ghana and your home countries will be proud of ... the time has come for us to think together and formulate strategies about giving our shows a certain direction to our mutual advantage. " Global technological developments and the attendant problems of urbanisation, industrialisation, privatisation and the environment constitute a poignant reason for this joint closer look." He called for the establishment of "a clearing-house on cultural co-operation", which shall relate with all diplomatic missions in the country.
