Page 54: Shanghai's World Expo is a hugely important change to flaunt power and the nation's engineering prowess plus cultural greatness. It will be the fulfilment of a 100-year-old dream as economic Olympics with $45 trillion investment for such show of green economy with red color as Chinese implication of good fortune.
A massive expansion of the Shanghai Metro underground and light rail network for good luck is now underway.
Expo 2010 in Shanghai will be as big as the London Underground. Two airports are being enlarged in Shanghai as well. The road along historic Bund is to build a new promenade. The American pavilion costs $61 million so far but only $49 million has been raised to be one of the bigggest crowd-pullers.
Since Shanghai is in the spotlight,Wu dialect i.e. Shanghainese will be in demand. Wu dialect is offered at www.Dictyon.net in Greenbelt, Maryland, USA.
