Australian pavilion starts to take shape

Australian pavilion starts to take shape
Mar 04, 2009 By eChinacities.com

Work on the foundations for the Australia Pavilion for the 2010 Expo was completed yesterday.

It had allocated A$61 million (US$40 million) for the construction and exhibition of the pavilion and gathered another A$22 million from enterprises and state governments.

In the public area, pavilion merchandise and gift bags will be given to lucky school groups, and visitors will be able to purchase a range of Australian gifts.

Visitors will also be able to relax and enjoy Australian food and drinks or experience a vibrant cultural program which will bring the best of Australian music, physical theater and dance to Shanghai.

The pavilion will be recruiting soon for English-Chinese bilingual people to work in the pavilion.
 

The country will showcase its practice of keeping a balance between urban construction and the natural environment under the theme "Mastering the challenges: Australia's smart solutions for our urban future."
