On Monday, March 29th the 32 hosts and 17 police officers who will represent the country in Chile’s pavilion at the Expo Shanghai 2010 will finish their two month training and preparation period and will be honored with an official ceremony. The hosts have been trained in different subjects, such as economy as well as geography and history of both countries Chile and China. Furthermore, the future Chilean staff at the Expo 2010 underwent training in customer care and foreign languages.
Chile’s presentation at Expo Shanghai 2010 is the largest relationship-building project undertaken by Chile, designed to give a major boost to its relationship with another country. Chile’s pavilion is the center of this relationship-building operation, which is aimed at making China one of Chile’s closest national allies and enabling Chileans to benefit from exchange with this country. A full schedule of visits and exchanges is supposed to maintain intense relations before, during and after the six months of exposition. Thus, the pavilion will have impacts in China as well as in Chile. Seminars, forums, competitions and extensive coverage in the media will ensure that the debate about cities, which is the central theme of the Expo, is also a significant topic of debate in Chile.
Today the hosts and police officers who will represent Chile in Shanghai will be received by the CEO of the Chilean pavilion, Hernán Somerville, the sub secretary of Foreign Affairs, Fernando Schmidt, the head of Carabineros de Chile, Eduardo Gordon and the Chinese ambassador to Chile, Lu Fan, and officially honored.
