Along with 40 other state parties to the World Heritage Convention, Indonesia will present properties to be considered for UNESCO's World Heritage List during this year's session Wednesday hosted by Canada.

Among the 41 states parties are five countries that have no sites inscribed on the list: Kyrgyzstan, Papua New Guinea, San Marino, Saudi Arabia and Vanuatu, according UNESCO's website.

The committee will review whether the 30 World Heritage sites inscribed on the List of World Heritage in Danger are being adequately preserved and may decide to add new sites requiring
special attention to the list.

UNESCO World Heritage Committee on Sunday added three new sites to its heritage list, including a former slave hideout in Mauritius, the Nabatean archeological site in Saudi Arabia, and China's Fujian Tulou earten houses.

The three new entries bring UNESCO's World Heritage List to 854 sites in more than 140 countries around the world.
