  2 million visit HK's expo pavilions  
     
  Visitors to the Hong Kong Pavilion and Hong Kong's exhibition at the Urban Best Practices Area at the Shanghai Expo reached the 2 million mark.

The overall popularity of the expo was also evident with total admissions exceeding 40 million on August 14.

Hong Kong Expo Affairs Office Commissioner Patrick Chan said he is encouraged by the pavilions' popularity. He commended their staff and volunteers for their dedication.

"I think the highlight or the most exciting event to be staged by Hong Kong will have to be the five-day Hong Kong Week that will kick off at the Baosteel Stage in the Shanghai Expo Park on October 18," he said.

"There will be an amazing array of performances by famous singers and performing groups, as well as other cultural events, especially during the opening ceremony on the morning of October 18."
