The big Expo 2010 and Expo site has been impressive and the council will try to promote water resources protection on Expo 2010 through exhibition, seminar and forums, said Fauchon.

The theme for this Expo is "better city, better life" and cities can not be better without well-organized water management, said Xu.

The organizer will offer good service for the Expo participants and he is looking forward to the outstanding exhibition of the council, Xu added.

Fauchon and his delegation also visited the Exhibition Hall and went atop the Expo Mansion to have a bird view of Expo site accompanied by Xu.

The World Water Council was the first non-governmental organization to announce its participation of the Expo 2010. The council confirmed its participation in September 2006.
