The city of Havana is chosen to welcome the opening ceremony for the launch of Fespam 2015. According to the Cuban diplomat, the show will be beautiful. « We are shall do the utmost in order to make the majority of the cultural events perform so that the Congolese people dance with their brothers of Cuba« , declared Manuel Serrano Acosta.
