VANCOUVER, April 27 (Xinhua) -- Shanghai's upcoming hosting of the World Expo will be an "unforgettable experience" for local residents, leaving a lasting legacy of international trade that will be of benefit to everyone, according to a former Canadian politician.Grace McCarthy, the British Columbia tourism minister who was largely responsible for bringing the World Expo to Vancouver in 1986, said the hosting of the fair put the Canadian city on the global map, ultimately leading to its successful hosting of the Winter Olympics earlier this year.Now 82 and retired from politics, McCarthy, who heads the Vancouver-based Child Foundation charity which helps children with liver and intestinal disorders, said the spinoffs of the Shanghai expo would be vast, ranging from economic development for the city and the country as a whole, to improving the lives of local residents."Shanghai undoubtedly has strong local government with committees working night and day to make connections around the world. Those connections will pay off because they wouldn't even show up if they didn't plan to have a plant (they wanted built) or wanted to go and help rebuild that area that the expo site is on. There will be international trade which will be a benefit for everybody," she said."The opportunity now for Shanghai is the world gets to know the city, not as a land, but as the land of opportunity. Not as individuals who are hardworking, but individuals who want people to come and stay and live and contribute to the country. That's the essence of a world expo. People will see a very different Shanghai than what they have envisioned. It's a pure learning experience."With a theme of transport and communication, the Vancouver expo previewed a host of technologies that are now commonplace.Demonstrations of the internet were on display nearly a decade before it became commonplace, while inventor Arthur C. Clarke presided over a satellite dinner. With diners sitting in Canada, the famed author of 2001: A Space Odyssey chatted with those assembled via satellite from his Sri Lankan base.There was also a demonstration line of Vancouver's new transportation system with an overhead "Skytrain" moving passengers through the expo site. McCarthy said the Canadian-made system had drawn great interest from Singapore which was looking to improve its own rapid transit at the time. However, they ended up going with Japanese technology."It's that kind of interface and that kind of incentive that assist industry both in Canada and British Columbia. From that point of view it was super successful from educating young people about the world they live and making industrial and commercial contacts. At expos you always see futuristic things."That's what really makes an expo when you can showcase the world. It's a real learning experience for the country hosting. Children would come to expo and they would learn all about China, what they produced, what their educational system was like. Then they would go to another pavilion and find out more. It was a real learning experience because there was something for everyone at expo."McCarthy admits Vancouver's expo experience happened almost by accident. To celebrate the city's 100th anniversary in 1986, she got in contact with the Louvre art gallery in Paris to see about the possibility of touring the Mona Lisa across Canada, but little success. A chance meeting in London with Patrick Reid, who had overseen Canada's interest at six world expos, however, sealed the deal. With a reported budget of 800 million to 1 billion Canadian dollars, the fair was a great success in attracting more than 22 million visitors, but ultimately lost just over 300 million Canadian dollars.Despite the financial loss, McCarthy said the expo was beneficial for the psychology of the country that at the time was emerging from a prolonged recession. In addition, there was a sense of patriotism that swept over Canada."It was very beneficial for the psychology of the country and that's difficult to put dollars to. Everything is not all dollars, but everything in dollars is psychological because if you pour money into a party, an event or something, you can be super successful if you do it right. That's what we did."For a person who doesn't know Shanghai, this is a great learning experience for them. They'll see the excitement of the opportunities, the young people who have come to life in the city and are doing incredible things, they'll see all of that and their perception will change. That's worth an awful lot in the global picture."One area that benefited Vancouver tremendously following the fair was tourism. In 2008, tourism employed more than 131,000 people in the western province making it one of its largest sectors along with forestry, fishing and mining. It had 2008 revenues of more than 13.1 billion Canadian dollars, up 35 percent since 2002, according to Tourism BC statistics. "Expo provided us with a showcase to show the world and the world was very interested in seeing it. We had boom years for tourism after that ... afterwards, the people who came in droves and were interested in coming simply because of the media coverage that went all over the world," McCarthy said."When the whole thing finished the world did know about us. Someday they would like to come to British Columbia, Canada. That was kind of the mantra. And people did come in droves. Tourism was at its peak during those years."She adds, however, that the Shanghai organizer needed to recognize that "a country can't live on parties" alone, they also needed to be serious about the business end of it."The business end of it is just as much the hospitality plan quotient and the business plan quotient together."It is very important that countries envision what they want for the values of their people and what the people themselves want for a very good way of life."

SHIJIAZHUANG, March 31 (Xinhua) -- Senior Chinese leader Li Changchun on Wednesday called for more efforts to develop socialist culture with Chinese characteristics.In an inspection tour of Hebei Province, Li, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, urged cultural authorities to reform and innovate to vigorously develop the culture sector.Li summed up progress in the culture sector since the 16th CPC congress in 2002 as a balance of the development of different aspects of the sector."In developing the culture sector, we must correctly handle the relationships between public cultural services and cultural industries, social influence and economic returns, Chinese culture and foreign culture, and the roles of government funding and non-government investment," Li said.Visiting the old revolutionary base of Xibaipo, where the CPC central committee was stationed before moving to Beijing in 1949, he asked local officials to file and digitalize the videos, photos and items that documented the history of the Party.

BEIJING, May 20 (Xinhua) -- As the curtain is about to rise on the upcoming second round of the China-U.S. Strategic and Economic Dialogue (S&ED), to be held in Beijing on May 24-25, the world's attention will again focus on the Chinese capital.Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Cui Tiankai said Thursday that in order to achieve positive results from the dialogue, China will strengthen communications, enhance mutual trust and deepen cooperation with the United States.Analysts say this round of talks is of special significance because it signals a new consensus reached by the two sides after overcoming certain obstacles in their relationship.MOVING TOWARDS THE SAME DIRECTIONThe history of Sino-U.S. relations is full of twists and turns, so every step forward and every turn for the better is precious.The second S&ED will be another positive turn for both nations after they overcame a number of complicated problems in their relations.After Barack Obama took over the White House last year, Sino-U.S. relations got off to a good start. Under a consensus reached by President Hu Jintao and Obama in London in April last year, the first S&ED was successfully held in Washington in July of that year and achieved fruitful results.However, from the end of 2009 to the beginning of 2010, Sino-U.S. relations had been seriously interrupted and bilateral cooperation greatly affected by a series of events, including the U.S. arms sales to Taiwan and U.S. leaders' meeting with the ** Lama.At that time, many outside observers doubted whether Washington would be able to cease those interruptive actions and pave the way for achieving positive results at the second S&ED.In April, Hu met Obama in Washington while attending the Nuclear Security Summit. During that meeting, Hu put forward a five-point proposal for developing Sino-U.S. relations, and called for "respecting each other's core interests and major concerns and ensuring healthy and stable development of Sino-U.S. relations."Obama responded positively to the proposal, promising to build a stronger U.S.-China relationship, respect China's core interests, and carefully handle sensitive issues.The meeting was widely believed as a successful one that was significant to the development of Sino-U.S. relations."The recent improvement in Sino-U.S. relations is of course related to China's firm insistence on its right positions," said Zhou Shijian, a senior fellow at the Sino-U.S. Relations Research Center of Qinghua University.In recent days, U.S. Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman also said frankly in Washington that due to certain decisions such as the arms sales to Taiwan made by the Obama administration earlier this year, the U.S.-China relationship went through many difficulties and challenges for several months. But that difficult period has gone, and the bilateral relations have entered a new phase.UNIQUE SIGNIFICANCE OF A UNIQUE MECHANISMIn a recent interview with Xinhua, Taiya Smith, the former lead negotiator for the U.S.-China Strategic Economic Dialogue at the U.S. Treasury Department, likened the two countries to two giant ships in the sea.She said when the two ships sail toward each other, they need to know the other's course. The S&ED is a unique mechanism to serve that purpose.Under the mechanism, the two countries are able to hold serious discussions once a year on strategic, comprehensive and long-term issues of mutual interest so that they will be able to deepen mutual understanding, enhance mutual trust and promote cooperation.Many analysts agree that this round of dialogue will be significant both for bilateral relations and the world situation as a whole.

TOKYO, June 1 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao described Tuesday his visit to Japan as successful, saying it has deepened trust, enhanced cooperation and consolidated the foundation for friendship between the two countries.In an interview with Japanese public broadcaster NHK, the Chinese premier called his visit to Japan "a journey of confidence and hope."Wen said he has achieved the visit's objectives of deepening mutual trust, enhancing cooperation and consolidating the foundation for friendship. "The visit is successful," he said.Important agreements were reached at his talks with Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama, including re-establishing a hot line between the heads of the two governments, creating a maritime communication mechanism between the two defense departments and speeding up the establishment of a maritime rescue agreement, Wen said.The two sides also discussed ways to strengthen bilateral economic and trade cooperation, and identified green economy, energy and environmental protection and e-commerce as priority areas for cooperation, he said."Cooperation between China and Japan enjoys broad prospects," said Wen.The Chinese premier also called for promoting bilateral cultural and people-to-people exchanges, saying these exchanges are fundamental to the friendship between the two countries.After concluding a three-day visit to Japan earlier Tuesday, Wen is now in Mongolia for a two-day official visit.

MANILA, June 4 (Xinhua) -- Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo lauded bilateral friendship at a ceremony held here Friday to mark the 35th anniversary of the establishment of Chinese-Philippine diplomatic relations.Arroyo said "When I became President, I made June 9 every year Filipino-Chinese Friendship Day. In the past, I set aside June 9 to attend activities to my Filipino-Chinese Friendship Day in Manila. But this year, many of you will be with me in Shanghai to celebrate this occasion."She said, "Our geographical ties, our trade relationship, our family relationship dates back centuries before our diplomatic relations and even before our two republics were established." "We are family, China and the Philippines are family." "We are family, more than neighbors.""During my visits to China over the last nine years, I had the privilege of visiting many cities all over China, and was greeted with the highest-ranking officials, including President Hu Jintao, Premier Wen Jiabao, and former President Jiang Zemin," she said.Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo receives a gift at the soiree celebrating the 35th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the Philippines and China, in Manila, capital of the Philippines, June 4, 2010. China is now our third largest trading partner. China is also one of the fast growing sources of tourists for the Philippines. The Filipino businessmen have almost invested 3 billions U.S. dollars in China. Likewise, Chinese investments in the Philippines have also grown in the past decades.She also said "I may not be President next month, next year, and the years to come, but as congresswoman...Let me assure you that I remain committed as ever to promoting and further strengthening a solid partnership between our two countries."Chinese ambassador to the Philippines Liu Jianchao said, "More than 35 years ago, our two countries were still overshadowed by zero-sum Cold-War mentality. Today, exchanges and mutual understanding at all levels have reached breath and depth never seen before.He added that 35 years ago, China-Philippines trade volume was lingering around 72 million U.S. dollars. The figure spiked to a record-high at 30 billion U.S. dollars in 2007 and registered a quarter-on-quarter increase of more than 50 percent during the first three months of this year.The numerous exchange visits of artists, writers, journalists, teachers, performers and sportsmen between our two countries have fostered deeper understanding of our ways of life as well as friendship between the Chinese and Filipino peoples. Only through friendship and mutual respect, through understanding and acceptance of common and contrasting characteristics, can nations truly live in an atmosphere of amity and harmony.Alfons A. Uy, president of Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chambers of Commerce, said Chinese-Filipino partnership flourished and grew stronger with the signing of the Joint Communique establishing diplomatic relations between China and the Philippines in 1975."We will also continue to lead the Chinese-Filipino community in undertaking projects that would promote national growth and development," he said.The ceremony was jointly organized by the Federations of Filipino-Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry and other Chinese organs to mark the 112th Philippine Independence Day, the 35th anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations between China and the Philippines and the 9th Filipino-Chinese Friendship Day.
