Adjust font size:

A senior official from the Bureau of International Expositions (BIE) voiced in Shanghai Wednesday his satisfaction toward the current preparation for the 2010 World Exposition.

 

"I'm fairly satisfied with the current preparation, but more difficulties are expected to emerge in the following work, said BIE Secretary-General Vicente Loscertales after wrapping up his three-day visit in Shanghai.

 

Loscertales got to know the progress of the relevant preparatory work done by the Shanghai municipal government so far during his inspection.

 

He also suggested Shanghai International Expo Bureau should send invitations as soon as possible to participants around the world and provide them with the best service.

 

Loscertales said the BIE will support and guide the organizers to prepare for the remaining work of the 2010 World Expo.

 

From 2006, the construction of infrastructure and other major exposition grounds will kick off. The secretary-general expressed satisfaction to the construction layout.

 

Shanghai has committed in the Registration Report of 2010 World Expo that Shanghai will attract more than 200 countries and international organizations to take part in the Expo. Loscertales said it was an "ambitious plan."

 

"Many countries are looking forward to being invited, and the BIE will make utmost efforts to help the Chinese government with the relevant invitation and solicitation work," Loscertales said.
