The Beijing police say they have been deploying 13-hundred patrol cars, 7-thousand officers and 3,000 assisting police every day for the past ten days.

Miao said, "Armed police are patrolling to thwart terrorists, lawbreakers and criminals. And they are also ready to act at any time."

The officer says there are thousands of militiamen patrolling bridges, overpasses and culverts in the city.

Backed by volunteers across Beijing, security personnel are ensuring the absolute safety of the capital's celebrations.
